The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at BB&T (Winston-Salem, NC) in Mar 2010
Interview
The first interview was a basic on-campus interview. They asked questions like what did you do to prepare for the interview and who is your role model. A couple days later I was emailed and asked to complete a skills test. 2 weeks later I was invited to Winston Salem to attend a 2 day interview. We had a dinner and a social the first night and several interviews the second day consisting of a writing section, a case study, and a couple other behavioral interviews. Overall it was a great experience. They paid for my hotel room and my gas, but the program is very competitive. I did not get a job offer but enjoyed my time. The process was very long however.

I applied through university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at BB&T (Houston, TX)
Interview
Applied for the Early Career Program through university website. Was invited for an on campus interview but the day before they cancelled and changed it to a phone interview. Interviewer was late to call and rude. A few weeks later was invited to NC to interview for the Leadership Development Program which I did not want due to immediate relocation to NC. Emailed them asking to be considered for EC still instead but was not responded to. Went ahead and attended the LDP interview. Half a day of interviewing. Emphasizes BB&T values to the max so know those. One basic behavioral interview and one interview where you talk about a case study you did right before and how you solved it. The case study is very simple and does not require any technical knowledge. They emphasize you must be open to do any job and move any where they place you at completion of the program.

I got recruited through my school. We had on campus interviews, which was one person who went through the person asking a handful of very structured behavioral questions; there was only one regarding financial services as a whole. After first round, we were sent a personality assessment. Around two weeks later heard about a superday that occurred in Winston Salem at the headquarters. This consisted of 3 45 minute interviews which was also all structured behavioral with older executives, and then one case that we wrote an essay about.
