I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at FirstMerit in Jun 2014
Interview
pretty easy nothing too complicated-they asked just general questions about banking which I had no clue and about my work history-they described the job and called me back the next day to kind of offer the job and then HR called a couple weeks later and I got the offer

Question 1
there were no difficult questions. I thought it was because of all the experience that I was bringing with me, but I later found out that there were no difficult questions because the branch manager was unable to think of any intelligent questions.
my interview was less than 15 minutes long.
