I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at PepsiCo (Piscataway, NJ)
Interview
I was notified via e-mail about this job opening. I submitted my application on Tuesday and was set up for a phone interview on Friday. They went over the job details and the pay and made sure I was OK with everything. Immediately after the phone interview they set me up for a face to face interview scheduled the following week. I got there and had to take a technical test before I was able to meet with the supervisor. They started with a few typical Pepsico interview questions then asked some technical questions. Every one was very nice and informative and really cared about my questions. Great interview great people!
I applied through college or university. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at PepsiCo (Tallahassee, FL) in Apr 2013
Interview
The initial college interviewing process is at least two days starting with information sessions in the evening. The info sessions are a great time to get face-time with a few of the people that are interviewing the next day. It also is informative without being boring and they play mini-games to explain the information and also to get to know people. Some take resumes that day but most people are referred via the school, so if you're called for an interview it happens over the following two days where its just you and one person. The person I interviewed with was very interested and engaging even though she wasn't over the field that I was applying for. If you make it past that round, there is another round of interviews where PepsiCo invites you to one of their plants (in my case it was Orlando) and over three days all applicants gets tours around the facility, get to participate in group projects and assignments, and then has a panel interview
