I applied through university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at BlackBerry (Ottawa, ON) in Feb 2011
Interview
Phone interview - lots of technical questions! Brain teasers. Since I was a remote candidate I just did one phone interview. I got my offer just in two weeks. The interviewers were the same people I worked with during my internship. Be prepared to talk about your previous experience and college projects.

Interview
The interview was more difficult than expected for a co-op role. Questions spanned multiple unrelated domains, with sudden shifts between topics such as embedded systems and web development. This approach felt somewhat unstructured and made it harder to understand what the team was actually prioritizing in candidates. Requirements to the questions were unclear.
