I applied through university. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at National Futures Association (Chicago, IL)
Interview
On campus 30 minute interview where a manager will mostly ask you why you are interested in this type of job and the NFA. If they like you, you are invited to their offices where you will be interviewed by 2 managers followed by a lunch with two staff members. They will inform whether or not you are hired in about 2months after the interviews.
The first round was an on-campus interview with a manager. General description regarding background and experience on my resume, academic background inluding finance and accounting courses i've taken. Then 5 standard behavioral questions, for example "Tell me about the situation when you had a difficult team member and how you handled it."

I applied through university. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at National Futures Association (New York, NY) in Nov 2012
Interview
Interview process was kind very basic. First, I had a phone interview where the recruiter asked basic questions, such as what classes have you taken for the position..name a time where you used managerial skills..name a time where you had a conflict and had to resolve it, etc. Then, I had the second interview with 2 Staff Auditors and two managers. You have to write an essay. This second interview is anywhere from 3-4 hours long. Towards the end, it gets tiring and difficult to continue on the conversation with the staff auditors since you cant really veer off subject.
