I applied through university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Aon (New York, NY) in Nov 2019
Interview
I was contacted for a first round Skype interview within a few days of submitting my application. The Skype interview was with a member of HR and a former Cyber Security Associate. I got invited to the super day in New York within a few days.
The super day had: tour of the lab, lunch with two analysts and the other 16 applicants, then writing sample, two rounds of behavioral and a logic test. They're pretty open about the schedule so ask your recruiter.
If you don't study cyber/ know a lot of cyber security, I would recommend taking some time the week before the interview to seriously grind on cyber terms. The Cyber Associate program is purely looking at Cyber Security and is not interested in achievements in SWE or theoretical CS.
A few weird things about Aon: I live pretty far away from NYC, enough that companies have always flown me there for interviews. Aon asked me to take a regional Amtrak. They also limited us to $30 in food spending. One of my interviewers made inappropriate comments about me, my background, and my body during our 1-1 but I was too surprised to say anything back.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Aon (Bengaluru) in Jan 2023
Interview
The process had 3 rounds. 1st and 2nd was technical. Basics were tested. 3rd was a case study round which expects you to be thorough and have good communication skills.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What is TCP/IP? Introduce yourself. Case study based interviews.
It was tough, mostly technical. The interviewer's voice was feeble. I was asked about DMZ which means In computer security, a DMZ or demilitarized zone is a physical or logical subnetwork that contains and exposes an organization's external-facing services to an untrusted, usually larger, network such as the Internet.
I applied online. I interviewed at Aon (Saint Louis, MO) in Jan 2021
Interview
New online video interview experience, not a very smooth or streamlined process, talking to your computer not a live person.
Very awkward and not too detailed.
Second round was a live interview, which was much better and more streamlined.

Question 1
Typical introductory questions followed by minimal technical questions.
