I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Accenture (Lissabon, Lissabon) in Jan 2013
Interview
The process was really simple.
First, I Submitted my CV online and a week later was contacted by phone (HR department) to schedule an interview in Accenture headquarters in Lisbon (5min). I had to pay all the trip expenses.
During the process, i did only one short and simple interview with a senior programmer. He was a very cool guy and let me do the talking. We talked about personal life, projects developed in faculty and attended classes. He also asked about availability to work in other European countries and Africa. (30min)
They called 2 weeks later and proposed an work experience in a client for 2 months in Lisbon.
After this period i was offered a long time contract to work in the same project.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The questions were about past projects and faculty classes. There wasn't any technical question.
After receiving an email to set up an interview call, I did three or four phone interviews and an online aptitude test before doing two in person interviews. Some advice, don't put anything on your resume without expecting at least a few questions about it, and make sure to brush up on the basics since some of the managers love asking tech questions.

Question 1
The posting mentioned SQL so I put it on my resume, but when I was drilled on inner vs outer joins and wildcards I had nothing and could only say that I didn't recall it.
