The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Fannie Mae (Washington, DC) in Dec 2011
Interview
I researched the company before the interview and thought of questions to ask when the interview concluded. The initial interview on campus consisted of just one 1:1 interview. I received an email from them asking if I would like to go to an in-office visit. That consisted of an informational session with three 1:1 interviews following.
