I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at 3M (London, ON) in Oct 2015
Interview
Good interview, more of a "conversation" than an interview with not too many "questions" per se. Question I put down was pretty specific to me. Not your standard interview. Made me feel very comfortable. Ended up not getting the job for kind of weird reasons (at least according to what I was told) though.

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at 3M
Interview
I was asked to come in for an interview with 3 admins who work on the same team I'd be working with. About 2 hours later, I was called and asked to come in for a second interview the following week and met with one of the same admins and the manager I would be supporting. I was called a day or so later and was offered the position I applied for.
