I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Bank of America in Nov 2008
Interview
I submitted my resume through the career service , and I got an email from them telling me that they want to interview with me. The interview was a pleasant but intense experience. The brainteasers were quite hard. The interviewer was however very nice, and easy going. I did not end up with an offer though.

Technical questions and a take home project. Tech questions are related to statistics and math, not very hard but time-series specifically. Also, there are questions related to probability calculation. The vibe is casual and the interviewers are very nice.

Mostly behavioral with past experiences. Not much technical questions, but I heard this can depend on who interviews you. 2 45-minute interviews back-to-back. Heard back with decision within 2 weeks.
