I applied through college or university. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at IHS Markit (New York, NY) in Mar 2011
Interview
This was the company's largest intern class, and as a rapidly expanding company, they were trying to revamp the internship process, so there were kinks to work out. The interview consisted of some fit questions, but a lot of technicals - primarily about credit derivatives. There was an initial phone interview and then two 1:1 interviews back to back, both of which varied greatly.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Why do you want to work here? Where do you see yourself next year?
4 x 30 minutes interviews one after another. My main advice would be to make sure you research the role you are applying for and some background on what responsibilities they have
It was easy and fun. Interviewers were friendly and kind and explained day to day responsibilities well. They mentioned what i would be doing and was very straightforward. The interview was very quick and they replied quick as well.
Phone screen followed by in person on site interview ~ 4 hrs long with 11 or more people. Everyone on the team was great. Definitely some more challenging questions, but not an uncomfortable environment, just trying to understand your experience, interest in the role, and future career objectives. After in person a 2-hr technical excel test was given via email.
