I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Freddie Mac in Jul 2015
Interview
It was casual but strange. I was suppose to meet with 3 people on the team. Ended up talking to just the associate, who doesn't make the hiring decision so I was pretty sure I wasn't going to get the job.
