Interviewed Oct 2011 (took a day)
Applied online. Called for a phoned screen. All fit questions primarily. Walk me through your resume. Finally, did ask what one looks for in a stock and to pitch one for them.
Seemed quite friendly and relaxed although they seem to really want someone who seems like they are interested but had not overly prepared.

Interviewed Aug 2011 in Colorado Springs, CO (took 3 weeks)
Probably a more difficult interview (the usual behavioral based) than my previous experience having interviewed for another position. It seems that perhaps the two managers had already decided to hire internally thus making my interview that much more difficult. The wait for the final outcome was a week and a half but the whole process took nearly 3 weeks.
I was referred to this position by a member in HR. I wish I had more money to spend to complete an MBA but two undergraduate degrees later (in relevant business/economic/legal fields) and I am still not qualified for even the most basic positions. This position was being offered at $33K with room in the future to grow in the company.
Not sure how this didn't get posted internally to begin with.

Interviewed Oct 2010 in Tampa, FL (took a day)
I applied online and was given a phone interview a couple weeks after applying. To follow up that phone interview I was immediately given acceptance to an in person interview at the corporate center. I interviewed one on one with the head human resources associate, but there were many others who interviewed with two associates. Wear a suit and tie, come with resume and cover letter ready to present, be firm, be confident, and most of all, be yourself.

Interviewed Aug 2011 (took 3 weeks)
I had a telephone interview with the recruiter which lasted around 45 minutes and at the end of the interview was set up with an in person interview the following week. The next interview was with two managers which was pretty much strictly behavioral based. No job offer yet.

Interviewed Jun 2011 in Baltimore, MD (took 3 days)
The interview process is simple and quite straight forward. The HR individual was not very cordial which was disappointing. The Interview was also relatively short compared to some of the others I had done (about 1.5 hours for the interview with the hiring managers). All personality based questions. The Owings Mills office did seem very 'collegial' as described during phone interview, and the hours were more then reasonable.

Interviewed Jun 2011 in Baltimore, MD (took 3 weeks)
Applied directly on website and received e-mail to coordinate a phone interview a few days later. Phone call was mostly going over my current experience and resume details. It lasted roughly an hour at which point I was invited to come in for a full day of interviewing in their offices in Baltimore (they paid for transportation and offered hotel but I didn't require it). I interviewed with 8 people about 2 weeks later (would have been sooner but there were scheduling issues on both sides). Interviews were of medium intensity with difficult finance questions being sparse and open-ended. Lasted from 9am till about 3pm (there was a lunch interview as well with an employee in the position I would be taking). Overall, very pleasant group of people and I enjoyed interviewing with them. Alas, I was turned down in a very polite and helpful manner (they gave feedback). Looks like a great company to work for and highly recommend anyone to apply for positions there.

Interviewed Jun 2011 in Colorado Springs, CO (took 3 days)
The interview was conducted by two hiring managers and asked questions that were behavior based. They were looking for you to analyze a situation and answer in the following format: Situation, Action, Result. If you stick to answering questions in this format you should be golden. Also, wear a suit to the interview.

Interviewed Mar 2010 in Owings Mills, MD (took 2 days)
It was an on-campus interview where I interviewed with a senior level executive who I met the previous evening at an information session. It was very laid back since everything she needed to know was on my resume. I asked A LOT of questions about the company to stretch the interview out to 30 minutes. After a week or so I was invited to the Owings Mill campus where I had 3 interviews with employees, a group tour, and a job shadow.

Reason for Declining
