I applied through college or university. The process took 8 weeks. I interviewed at Altria (Rutgers, NJ) in Oct 2017
Interview
I applied through my college job search. The interview process consisted of 3 phases. The first was a behavioral interview that lasted about an hour. It took them about 2 weeks to follow up with scheduling for a second round, which was a case study about a hypothetical coffee shop where you must provide recommendations to the coffee shop. Again another 2 weeks went by and finally I heard back from the telling me that I did an outstanding job and that I made it to the final round which was a "Day in Life". I spend literally all day with them, 8am-4pm. They showed me what the typical day consisted of and I had to the opportunity to ask a lot of questions. I was taken out to lunch and obviously you have to keep in mind that the entire day is a long interview. The final question I was asked was "Are you willing to relocate?"
Now I am very family oriented and relocating was an option, however not to the middle of no where. (I'm pretty sure they only had opening in Kentucky, Kansas, and middle of nowhere Ohio) so I said I'd be willing to relocated anywhere in PA, NJ, Del, NY). I was not offered a job.

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Altria
Interview
Step one consisted of a "screen interview" with two company employees (Territory Sales Manager and District Manager). Step two was a "panel interview" with three employees (Territory Sales Manager, Unit Manager and District Manager). Third step was a "day in the field interview" with a Territory Sales Manager and a Unit Manager.
I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Altria (Warner Robins, GA) in Jan 2018
Interview
The overall process was very long and drawn out. There is a significant lack of communication and you are strung along for a few months all for nothing. To make it to the final third stage and then not even get a personal call telling you that you didn't receive an offer is a bit cold in my opinion. The interview process isn't pleasant.
