I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Vanguard (Scottsdale, AZ) in Dec 2014
Interview
It went very smoothly. One phone interview, two in-person interviews. The interviews were fairly basic and brief. They tested mainly for a cultural fit rather than a skills assessment. Much of this job was organized to teach us as interns! Learned an unbelievable amount over 10 weeks.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Using the STAR method, explain one time your team was not collaborating effectively and how you solved it?
Applied online, then phone interview and then on site student visit day. Everything was behavioral, lots and lots of STAR based questions. Recruiter would prep you before your onsite and provide some tips.

Interview
The interviewing process was very seamless and straight forward. I initially talked to a recruiter at my school career fair and had my first round interview over the phone. After about a 45 minute conversation and some behavioral questions I was invited to Malvern, PA for a second round interview. The flew me out and put me up in a hotel. The next day consisted of two one-hour interviews and several other activities where myself and 5 others were being evaluated. The interviews were mainly behavioral and situational while they were just trying to get to know you better.
