I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Development Planning & Financing Group (Phoenix, AZ) in Jan 2012
Interview
First I did a phone interview with a recruiter who received my resume from Career builder. Then I did an in person interview that was a panel style with recruiters, ceo and other team members. Then I had to do a very difficult excel test. Test was hard and I was honest that I didn't know most of it. I took a modeling course after I got the job and it really helped me. I recommend a modeling course for anyone who applies to this job. It is a technical analyst role.

Interview
Two rounds of interviews, first with 2 middle management then with the managing principal and CEO himself. First half was mostly going through my resume and trying to connect how it relates to what they do. Entry-level positions are very Excel based so a good Excel background is good. The second round was basically a conversation with the MP and CEO. Also had a 90 minute Excel test.

Weren't a lot of hard questions, they just wanted to see if my skill set fit what they needed, particularly the Excel modeling part.

Interview
Submitted resume received a call to come in for an interview. Interview was good, met the managing principal as well as two other employees. Learned more about the company, about each person and also told them a bit about myself and my background. Had to do an Excel test as they just wanted to see where I was at in Excel, was pretty tough but manageable. Had a small debrief at the end with the manager and was told I would hear back in the next 2-3 weeks.
