I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Schneider Electric (Los Angeles, CA) in Mar 2015
Interview
HR screen call and email confirmation for on site interview. First round interviewed with hiring manager, talked about the business unit and responsibilities. Manager is very nice and shared her career path and understanding of the company, the conversation is very smooth. Second round interviewed with principal FA and distribution supervisor. The position is designed to work under supervision of principal FA, and from the conversation who indicated this position is more accounting focused rather than finance, and only needs a person with basic accounting skills and understanding of business.

Interview
HR contact was very rude and unprofessional. It's such a waste of time talking to the HR. Can already imagine the culture working in there. Not interested in the company anymore.
