It took a couple of weeks from the time the recruiter submitted my info until BofA first contacted me. The skills test was a time-boxed, 2-hour assignment sent via email and certainly doable if you worked with Perl before. For the group phone interview, have some answers handy for the classical questions like where do you see yourself in five years. One of the interviewers seemed a bit opinionated and old-school as it relates to traditional RDBMS versus more modern databases. The only thing that was a bit disappointing is that I was not contacted at all afterwards although the interview went well. I followed up with them after one week to request an update about the next steps. A standard decline email was sent within five minutes of my call.
