Spoke with four people on the phone via separate, informal "coffee chats." Waited for two weeks and then reached out to recruiter who initially contacted me regarding the position. Did not receive a response back.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Fifth Third in Oct 2010
Interview
I was referred to the hiring manager by a colleague. it took several weeks to get on the calendar. When we met, I learned that it wasn't really an interview but a screening in case potential positions came up in the future. I felt misled about that. it was more about meeting someone for coffee but a few behavioral questions were asked.
The person leading the interview should up to the teams call 20 mins late. Overall, there was anything that stood out as a very difficult question. If anything I felt overprepared by going back and looking into some old accounting and financial basics.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Fifth Third
Interview
Very efficient process. Applied online and completed email screen. Position was filled before I submitted my application, but received another position suggestion a week later. Had 2 interviews with manager and team lead. Great interviews. Discussed the position and my past experience.
