I applied through college or university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Barclays in Nov 2009
Interview
Applied through my college career website and was contacted 3 weeks later that I have been chosen for a phone interview. The interview was of fair difficulty; a combination of standard questions and "personalized" questions towards my answers. The person I spoke to was very friendly and seemed enthusiastic about Barclays Capital. About 5 days later I was emailed and notified that I had been selected for final round interviews which consist of 3 30-min meetings.
