I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at John Deere in Mar 2016
Interview
Interviews are all completely behavioral questions, and they require you to answer in STAR format. Interviewers are typically John Deere employees who had the same major in college as you.

Question 1
Tell me about a time you worked on a particularly challenging project in a team. What steps did you take to overcome challenges?
1 hr interview, straight forward. behavioral questions were good, if you prepare would be an easy interview. Panel interview can be a little intimidating but the interviewers were nice. Also Prepare for questions at the end.
Initial phone interview then 2 panel interviews. Panel interviews took a total of 2 hours; each with two different people lasting 1 hour. You are asked to follow the STAR format and give specific situations and how you responded.
