I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Barclays (New York, NY) in Mar 2012
Interview
HR reached out for an initial phone screen. Once that was done - took a few weeks but then HR set up half-day-long interviews with 5 VP managers. Each lasted about 30 minutes. Position was in operations, most of the questions for pretty standard, personality based.
QC and Issue resolution analyst - court orders.
Final stage interview - no second interview.
Lasted an hour. Interviewed by 2 people.
Online interview not in person
Really enjoyed, didn’t feel too daunting in the moment, felt conversational

Started with an HR screening followed by two rounds of interviews with the hiring manager, offer rolled out within 2 weeks of the interview. Positive feedback overall, interview questions maybe analytical in nature.
Amazing, 5 rounds in German language.
Very smooth, quick back to back rounds, and results are quick
HR round, then a Technical round, Then a asseesment round where excel data had to be analysed, then a team fit round, then a director fit round, overall a standard process for any Bank
