Interviewed Nov 2011 in Cincinnati, OH (took 2 weeks)
Took a personality test and basic reasoning test online. Was contact about a week later by recruiters inviting me to on-campus interview. Had a week to prepare for the interview. Basic C-A-R interview (Context-Action-Result). They emphasize in the interview that's how they would like the responses. Rather basic behavioural questions. All of them were "Tell me about a time when...." Make sure ahead of time you make mental note of several experiences where you had to make big decisions or were in a tough situation. Example: Tell me about a time you had to develop a unique solution to a problem. First interviews consist of 9 behavioral questions. Be sure to ask some well thought out and position oriented questions at the end.

Tell me about a time you took the leadership roll in the group?
Tell me about a time you had to make a difficult decision and how you made it?
Lasted about an hour. I felt like I did well upon leaving, but did not get call back.

Interviewed Aug 2009 (took 2 weeks)
I did 2 phone interviews, the first was with an HR manager and the second phone interview was a group interview with 3 people directly from the marketing program. They were extremely nice and focused on telling them when certain things had happened such as "tell me a time when you faced a difficult situation, tell me a time when you faced dan obstacle with a group" etc.
The IQ test I took was a logic test on the computer.

Interviewed Sep 2011 (took 2 months)
After applying online, I went to as many college events as possible and spoke to one of the recruiters about my resume. I was called for an interview a couple of days before the college job fair. After my interview it was more than a month before I heard back from the company, scheduling a second interview.

Interviewed Oct 2011 (took a day)
P&G interviews follow the C-A-S formula.
They look for : Context, Action, Result
On your interview evaluation form, your interviewers will actually write out these letters and take notes for each part of the formula. They will probably also do that right in front of your which can be distracting.
As you tell your stories you must present your answers in this way or your interviewers will not no make a note and you will see blanks on your interview eval. They are very prescribed in looking for all three parts and are especially keen on looking for the result of your actions.
I found it to be disappointing that they were so rigid in their interview process since I have some entrepreneurial experiences that didn't quite match the formula and that was viewed negatively.
My interview was about 40 minutes and I got about 9 "tell me about a time" questions. I interviewed at one of the large career fairs and found my interviewers to be more interested in who was walking by and not maintaining eye contact with me.

Interviewed Oct 2011 (took a day)
This was a campus interview with P&G in our campus. One senior recruiter interviewed me for about 60 minutes. First he told how the process of the campus interview, and it may take 6 weeks to hear from them. Then I gave him my resume. He went to through my resume, and started to pick interesting things I have done, and asked me to tell him the details of these events.

Interviewed Oct 2011 (took 3 days)
Interviewed by one experienced senior HR manager (with 12 years sales experience) and one senior Sales Account Manager. Completely situational based questions. Turned off by when interviewer said "one day, you could even work anywhere in North America"—as if to sound it was the best thing ever. But overall fair questions and no curve balls.
