I applied through college or university. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at M&T Bank (Buffalo, NY) in Apr 2012
Interview
It was a very long, but pleasant process. I?applied through the school recruiting website and had a 1:1 interview with the school alumni. I was then contacted to fly to Buffalo for a second round interview. I had lunch with other candidates and current employees, followed by interview with 3 employees from one of the departments. The people at M&T Bank are very friendly and nice. I was contacted about 10 days after for the result.

Interview
It was a very friendly interview with 4 different directors and a lunch with a former program graduate. They ask mostly fit/behavioral questions, so you really need to know your resume well and be able to tell your story. You can tell that each director loves their job, and as long as you convey your passion you should be fine.

Interview
I was contacted though on-campus recruiting and had an initial interview on campus. Then, after about 1 week I was invited to interview in Buffalo. I was offered my choice of department but has not given my top choice. I went to Buffalo where I had 6 total interviews including lunch and an 'interview' with HR. Everyone was extremely nice but I could not help but get the vibe that the job/company was a dead-end in a ghost like city. Frankly, I was glad to leave the company and city at the end of the day.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Very basic behavioral questions (some of the interviews had NO questions for me and wanted me to ask them 30 minutes worth of questions). Why M&T and Why Buffalo are important.

Interview
The first round was an on campus interview with a local branch manager. If they like you, they send you onto the next round for an on-site in-person interview with 3 senior managers and 1 junior MDP graduate who will take you out to lunch. I have a feeling that lunch is actually also an interview. Everyone is very friendly, and Buffalo was an easy place to navigate, although seemingly very sparsely populated.
