Interviewed Jan 2012 in Los Angeles, CA (took a day)
It was a fine company but I do not recommend if you want to go anywhere near fiance.
it's basically a loan company that offers private loans, that's it.
pro, very very very easy interview
con, nothing much to work there and waste time
told the manager I'll not come on 1:1 so I pretty much quit myself.

Interviewed Feb 2012 (took 4+ weeks)
I first received a phone interview, which consisted of basic questions like what do you know about the company and what can you tell me about yourself. After that, I was invited to a 1:1 interview with the branch manager. They asked a structured list of 11 behavioral questions, like how do you handle stress, describe a difficult situation, etc. After that, I was invited back to another one on one interview with the same manager to go over detailed job history and qualifications I had on my resume. Overall it was a very positive and personable interview process.

Interviewed Feb 2012 in Chicago, IL (took 4+ weeks)
I turned in my resume through my college career website and I received a phone call two months later. During the phone conversation, we just went over my resume and then I got invited on an on-site interview. My interview was an hour and consisted of easy behavioral questions and an overview of the position and company. The interview lasted an hour and was very informative. The office was small and had basic cubical stations and computers. It seemed new and had minimum things. After that interview, I was invited a week after to a second round interview on-site. During this interview I was asked similar behavioral questions and it lasted about 20 minutes.

Interviewed Feb 2012 (took 3 weeks)
The first interview consisted of brief background of the origins of the company and how it was ran today. The company is decentralized and has many branches over the US. Questions that were asked included why I was interested and questions to judge my character. The 2nd interview was in the office location where they intended to hire the next candidate and interview spoke more about specifics of the position, salary, promotion, etc.

Interviewed Jan 2012 in Los Angeles, CA (took a day)
There was a very brief (10 min?) phone "interview." It was more like a review of your resume and setting up your interview appointment. I had my interview a week later at the office, and it was the least formal interview in a formal setting. The office that I interviewed at had only 3 people in there in their own cubicles when I walked in; I didn't expect that. I had the 1-on-1 interview in a small office. He just went down a list of questions (about 10) and there was little small talk outside of that.

Interviewed Dec 2011 (took 2+ weeks)
Quick call to find out the basics. They then call you in for a 1:1. If you pass that, you get another 1:1 with the same person. Questions were typical. Very basic interview. Almost all behavioral.

Interviewed Jan 2012 in Los Angeles, CA (took a day)
Straight forward interview, consisting of several typical questions. It lasted for about 30 minutes. I thought it went well but for some reason I wasn't offered the job. Office is quite small, I went in during the afternoon and there were only about 4 or 5 people at most in the office.

Interviewed Jul 2011 in Schaumburg, IL (took 2 weeks)
Set up a phone interview first, simple background questions and learn about the company. Then moved to a 1 on 1 interview at a local branch. Very basic and simple questions were asked about strengths and weaknesses and how I handle stress. Expected to hear back within the next week but never did.
