I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at M&T Bank (Buffalo, NY) in Dec 2012
Interview
Your experience will vary depending on how many departments you interview for. I only applied to work in one department so I had a half day interview ending with lunch with a former MDP. For some people, they may bring you in a second time for a interview with another department, but I think that's mostly for people that are local.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Basic standard questions. This varies by department.I would say be prepared to talk about why you want to work in the department, why here as opposed to any other bank, what intrigues you about the position. The basic standard stuff that you should always know for any interview. They really don't try to trick you with tricky questions.
Screening with an interviewer, then two interviews with separate departments. Screening interview was smooth and recruiter was very friendly. Interviewers from the next round didn't provide that much information about the actual roles and didn't seem that excited about their jobs.
Had a great interview process! Was able to interview with three different departments and see where I fit best. They also had me do informal conversations with current MDPs. It was very low pressure yet valuable experience.

Interview
I was selected to come to Buffalo for the interview. The company covered the expenses and the stay. The interview was pretty straightforward. Talking about my resume. It was mostly behavioral and there were no technical question. My suggestion would be to know your projects and to be able to explain them thoroughly
