I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Barclays (Wilmington, DE) in Jan 2010
Interview
Contacted by Temp Svc, right after graduation, the HR person called within a week to schedule phone interview, one the scheduled day she called one half hour late and seemed hurried. Ask typical questions and said she would get back to me. Never called back but got news of hire int he mail.

Question 1
Where do you see yourself after 5 years with this company?
2 one on one interviews before and after the group interview. The interviewers are not the same and they are competency based. The questions are role based but quite easy. Not as difficult as you would assume.
Applied online on their website , did a online test, had a phone call, then proceeded to having a face to face interview. In which they asked me 5 questions.

Question 1
When did you use digital technology to help someone
Longwinded on line. Felt very impersonal and cold. Not an issue for some. But there was no personality. Lady was nice enough, answered questions. It was FTC - so might be why. Advised chance of staying after but didn’t really seem like a possibility at all.
Not really a positive or negative review. Just didnt leave me wanting to work there unless just a check.
