I applied through university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at BB&T (Washington, DC) in Oct 2011
Interview
The HR has a list of question that she is going to ask you. Basically behavior questions. There are also some questions specifically about your CV. HR is very nice. Questions include why do you want to work for financial industries, What do you think are the reasons that cause the economic crisis and what are the reasons you think we should hire you instead of other candidate.

Question 1
What are the factors that cause the financial crisis?
I applied for the Leadership Development Program - Analyst Role through my schools recruit board. I was notified by BB&T that I was selected for the first round interview a week or two later. I have only had a first round interview so far but it was fairly simple - the questions asked were your typical behavioral questions.

Question 1
Describe a time where your leadership abilities were tested.
Had a first round interview on campus. It was very basic behavioral questions and some why BB&T type questions. About a week later I was contacted to take a few personality tests. After that I was flown out to their headquarters in Winston Salem where I had one day of interviews. There was small written portion followed by two behavioral interviews. They are really trying to find fit more than anything.
