I applied through college or university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Visa Inc. (Foster City, CA) in Apr 2016
Interview
The whole interview process took 2-3 weeks. I got an initial 30-minute interview in a conference around end of March, and an on-site interview at their headquarters 2 weeks later. There were three rounds of interviews, two of which were technical and one was behavioral. Asked a lot about OOP concepts and regular cs knowledge.
I had a pleasant interview experience, HOWEVER, after the interview process, I asked for my reimbursements back for transportation and food, and to this day (3 months later), they still haven't gotten back to me. I was in contact with the recruiter, and she replied very slowly (after 1-2 weeks). She assured me that the reimbursements were on the way to me, but I did not receive them. After, I sent multiple reminder emails asking for my reimbursements, and she stopped replying me altogether. This issue has went on for three whole months and they owe me a couple of hundred dollars.
