I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at American Express in Mar 2015
Interview
Chat with recruiter, phone interview, in-person interview with one manager and one peer. The phone interview consisted mostly of general knowledge questions of the programming language and design concepts. The in-person interview had a couple of practical scenario tests, a whiteboard test, and a few of the classic personality based interview questions. Finally much time was spent gathering information about the projects ongoing in the company.
