I applied through college or university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Barclays (Whippany, NJ) in Nov 2019
Interview
The Interview process as a whole was pretty easy because it was the first iteration. There is a pre-screen exam that has a business case in it. After that, there are 2 in-person 45-minute interviews. One extended on the pre-screen business case and the next one was a technical interview because I was being interviewed for a developer role. Technical interview was too bad, had more questions on overall understanding of technology and projects you've worked on.
