The hiring process was brief , barely lasted for about 30 mins, where they grilled me on my resume, my past experience, my MBA curriculum.
Advice to other prospective applicants - dress up well, know your resume, smile.
People - nice though aggressive , hence be yourself , quick thinking def helps as they will ask a lot of personality based questions

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Barclays in Dec 2009

Smooth & quick hiring process...most questions are tailored around on how you handle yourself in a team enviornment and working under pressure. Will ask few technical questions to guage how you articulate things even if you may not know the correct answer.
Pay is pretty well but be prepared to put in some long hours.
