I applied through college or university. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Kerry (Beloit, WI) in Apr 2016
Interview
After 5 weeks of submitting my resume at university job fair, the local recruiter contacted me for a phone interview. She asked basic questions about my resume and then set up an on-site interview for the following week with four vice presidents and the local HR manager. After two weeks (which was supposed to be one week) I heard back with positive feedback and another phone interview with my direct manager; then again after that, the last phone interview with my manager's director; after two days, I got the offer.
One frustrating point about the process was their delay in decision making and difficulty to reach HR manager or the recruiter.
