I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Procter & Gamble (Newcastle, England) in Apr 2010
Interview
I initially applied online, submitting my CV and covering letter. I then had to take two online tests consisting of a reasoning test and their "success drivers" assessment. About a month later I received an email saying I had been successful and inviting me along to their assessment day where I had to take another longer and more difficult reasoning test.
I found out within 24 hours that I had passed this test and then was invited to have a phone interview, I again passed this stage and was informed straight away that the next stage would be face to face interviews with a senior manager. I travelled to their head offices and had my interview which lasted roughly an hour with two of their senior managers, and consisted of virtually identical questions to the phone interview. 10 days later I received a job offer.
Apart from the initial waiting stage the whole process was very fast.
5 rounds of interviews with questions directly from the P&G framework. Questions were not very challenging and can be prepared beforehand based on the P&G question format. The rounds increase based on levels of seniority , last round is the highest band.

Interview
3 entrevistas com perguntas situacionais. Não necessariamente é cobrado experiência, mas importante ter um storytelling pra vaga que está aplicando. Mas as perguntas são muito padrão, do que se espera de uma entrevista

Uma situação que você trabalhou em equipe pra resolver um problema
Online assessment, then three online interviews with different levels of seniority. Simple format for each interview, non technical questions. Feedback given at the end. Took a while to find out if I had passed each stage.
