I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Barclays (Hongkong) in Mar 2012

A phone interview of basic CV/competency/company questions, followed by an assessment centre that took the whole afternoon. AC includes a brief intro to the internship programme, 2-1 personal interview, HR case study (~10 pages, 45mins preparation + 45mins Presentation) followed by individual presentation, and a quite flexible group task followed by presentation and Q&A
Interview questions [1]

I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Barclays (Singapur) in Feb 2012
Interview
Consisted of a phone interview followed by an assessment centre. The phone interview lasted for at least with quite alot of demanding questions. You need to have a lot of knowledge on the investment banking industry. And also be prepared to answer competency questions. I was rather surprised to be called for the assessment centre. The assessment centre consisted of an interview, case presentation and a group exercise. For me, the case presentation was quite a daunting experience.
