I applied through college or university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at AllianceBernstein (New York, NY) in Feb 2016
Interview
The first interview was on campus with a manager. All questions were typical behavioral questions to see how you handle challenges. Then I advanced to super day where I interviewed with 3 other associates. Again, all behavioral questions only. They did give us an article to read on active vs passive management and we had to give our opinion on it, but nothing really technical. Overall, I would say it was a great interview experience, with no surprises, minimal stress. I prepared with help from my university career center.

Interview
Applied through school and had an on-campus interview (1:1). Very easy if you know about PWM and Bernstein's role within it. Interview went well but not well enough. No email was sent to candidates not invited to further rounds.
