Interview
They bring a lot of candidates in on the same day and set up a lunch with enthusiastic former MDPs. First interview of the day was with an HR recruiter that I'd been in contact with. She asked straightforward behavioral questions.
Four other interviews were one-on-one with VPs in the department I was interviewing for. They asked a lot of the same questions and gave me a lot of the same information. Behavioral and fit questions. They did not ask any technical questions.

Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about a time when you were involved in a group project and someone was not pulling their weight, how did you handle the situation?
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at M&T Bank (Buffalo, NY) in Sep 2017
Interview
relatively easy process: 1st round is an easy informational interview, happened 2 weeks after the first round. 2nd round is just as easy, simple questions about resume. Final Round in buffalo was mostly behavioral and fit questions with the managers of the group you’re applying for, no technical or tough curve ball questions.
