I applied through college or university. I interviewed at ING
Interview
A few questions about resume, motivation to join and some technical questions. It is quite friendly and casual. Not that intense and vigorous. People here are very nice. Good office. Nice place.
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at ING (Amsterdam) in Apr 2016
Interview
I submitted an application online: general info + motivation type questions. I was contacted in a few days, saying that I was selected for the next level , i.e. capability tests. There were three tests (Logical, Numeric and Verbal) that had to be completed in 3 business days. The tests themselves were not difficult (15 or so minutes each), however, the time permitted per question was very low, sometimes humanly impossible. If your scores are above average, after the capability tests, there is a personality test and an interview with HR person and one of the current trainees. Then, if invited, there is an interview with the company management.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Logical test had sequences of different images or signs in a table (3X3), where one cell was marked with "?". You had many options below to choose from, to fill in the ? cell in the table based on the pattern you see in the table.
Numerical tests had tables with information, and then 2-4 questions based on each table. For example, a table with companies and their average sales per time period. Then, the questions asked to do some simple calculation, for example to compare the sales of two companies at a given time period and say whose sales were less or more in %.
Verbal test had short texts, 2-4 paragraphs and then some questions based on the text. Like what is the main point of the text, what is the synonym of this word in the text, etc. All questions were multiple choice.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at ING (Amsterdam) in Oct 2015
Interview
First I was given a call for a Skype or in person interview. This was the first round. The purpose of this round was to get to know each other better. No technical question in this round, just getting to know each other better and see alignment. Then I was given a second call to be on site and give a second interview. This one is technical, and had different conceptual questions. Then about a week later I got a call with an offer to join the team as an intern.
