I applied through college or university. I interviewed at United Airlines (Chicago, IL) in Nov 2017
Interview
First, there was a phone call for the first round that lasted about 30 minutes. Some general questions, walking through the resume, and then a short case-type question.
Next was a take home case assignment.
Finally, there was an-person second round interview. Three different people interviewed me (all managers in the division I applied for) and each one lasted about 30 minutes.

What makes you interested in the airline industry?
Had a phone screening, then a behavioral interview with several team members, and then a shorter interview with my two supervisors. Process was held up by poor planning but interview content was easy.
