I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Merck (Newark, NJ) in Nov 2012
Interview
Flown in for on site interview and presentation. The presentation Q&A process was standard. The behavioral questions were standard. Traveled from manager to manager answering questions which became an overwhelming process.
Applied online. About 30 minutes phone call from the team leader. Then 4 hours on-site interview, met the team leader and several team members, and a short presentation after lunch .
