I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Bank of America (New York, NY) in May 2010
Interview
The interview was for a Summer Quantitative Analyst Intern position. We talked over the phone around 1,5 hours. 1 person asked finance questions, another asked programming and math questions. Half of the questions were finance, even though I am a fundamental science PhD. Also the C++ questions were mostly about the syntax, which I find rather not relevant to quantitative analysis.
The interview was with two people at the same time. There was only one round and the interview lasted an hour. No technical questions, everything was behavioral. Overall a good experience.
Application, followed by hirevue and interviews by analysts. Standard interview questions provided during the interview, such as introducing yourself, strengths and weakness, and technical questions on financial accounting. Overall pleasant interview.

Question 1
Introduce yourself, accounting questions that are standard
Very easy process and recruiter were super nice. I did it through a program so I think most of us got an offer though. I would recommend to anyone out of college just make sure you use the STAR method.
