Interviewed Apr 2011 (took 2 days)
One on One interview, followed by a superday, followed by a phone interview.
Mostly behavioral questions. It was important to impress the first round interview or you might get put on a track you don't want to be on.

Interviewed Nov 2011 (took a day)
Asked me to walk me through my resume and asked me questions about my experiences as well as a couple of behavioral. Why PNC and if there were any specific groups I was interested in. Though the interview was very standard and relaxed.

Interviewed Nov 2011 in Chicago, IL (took 3 weeks)
First interview was with two people. They just want to make sure your interested and prepared/know about the internship. Then second interview was a "super day" two weeks later for about 7hrs with a mandatory networking event the night before.

Interviewed Nov 2010 in Pittsburgh, PA (took 2 days)
Drove to Pittsburgh for pre-interview cocktail style reception the night before the interview day. All candidates were able to mingle with current PNC employees from all over (FL, DC, Philadelphia, etc.) to get a better understanding of the track being interviewed for. Semi-informative, although some of the current staff representatives weren't all that enthusiastic. The following morning, the interns walked over to the bulding that we were interviewing in. PNC seemed to have rented out the floor of a random building, so we never actually visited the PNC offices to scout out the environment. We were given a rotational schedule for the remainder of the day. Each candidate went through about 3-4 different sessions with a panel of 2 PNC representatives conducting the interview each session. Some sessions were more difficult than others, some technical and some were more conversational. All in all, this was extremely inconsistant and not as planned out as one would expect. Continental breakfast and a boxed lunch were provided, although not enough seating The interview process went from around 8am-2pm, so the day was pretty exhausting. All in all, not very impressed with the organization of the process. Wasn't offered a position, although I don't think I would have taken it after getting a taste with the companies way of doing things.

Interviewed Oct 2009 (took a day)
Interview was very laid back, more getting to know more about the potential employee. Also, some reflection on the resume and if questions arose, more detail would need to be given over these resume items.
Also, there was more detail given about the internship and what our responsibilities would be.

Interviewed Sep 2010 in Pittsburgh, PA (took 5 days)
PNC had invited all candidates to a pre interview dinner, the next day was an on campus 1 on 1 interview. The interview went very well, all behavioral questions. Such as tell me a time you blew it for a group, can you sell, what can you bring to PNC. I was later offered an acceptance to the Super Day which i will be attending next week.

Interviewed Mar 2009 in Philadelphia, PA (took a day)
This position was posted through a college career center website with the additional requirement being that you also apply at the company's website. The best thing to know when going into an interview for an internship is not necessarily questions specific to your field. The best thing to know is what you have accomplished in your life, plus mental notes of situations you've faced that fit generic strength/weekness/overcoming adversity questions. The interview itself was relaxed and friendly.

Interviewed Apr 2009 (took 2 days)
First, I had an on-campus interview with an alum of my school. This was mostly a "fit" interview, with no technical questions. A week later, I was invited to partake in their Super Day. I flew to Cleveland for a dinner the night before with current employees. The next day, I had about 6 interviews with two interviewers each. These were a mix of fit and technical.
