I applied online. I interviewed at American Express (New York, NY) in Jul 2014
Interview
Couple of silly "trick" questions. Everything else was boilerplate. You can Google the answers to the predictable questions. If you're good looking, or "client-facing", as they say, you go the job.

Question 1
How do you deal with difficult people? (this should have been a warning)
I applied online. I interviewed at American Express in Nov 2016
Interview
First there was an online application. This was followed by online numerical and verbal tests. The next stage was a video Interview. You have 30 seconds to prepare each question as they pop up on the screen, you then record your answer of 3-5 minutes (depending on the question). There were 6 questions. This will then be submitted and reviewed. The assessment day was due to be held a week after I took the test. I heard that I had not passed the evening before.

Question 1
Q: What makes you suited to a career in marketing?
Q: Explain a challenge you've overcome.
I applied through college or university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at American Express (New York, NY) in Nov 2016
Interview
There were two rounds. One on campus interview and one Superday at the office in NYC. The first was two 30 minute interviews and the superday was two 45 minute interviews. Each of the interviews required me to answer both behavioral and hypothetical case questions. The case questions were very vague and really served to show how I thought not necessarily the quality of my answers. The best way to prepare for the interview is to know your resume front and back and how each experience would make you a good candidate for the job youre going out for. Also, I would do a lot of research about the company. Know how they use big data, the closed loop system, and the purpose of coffee chats. I would also know a few programs they do outside of their core business model like their 1:1 model and small business saturdays. The more you show you know about the company the better you will look!

Question 1
We are introducing a new corporate card for the healthcare industry. How would you gage the success of the card and how would you know whether or not to implement this campaign into the market.
