I applied through a recruiter. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Discover (Riverwoods, IL) in Jun 2011
Interview
I was initially contacted by an outside recruiter who connected me with HR. Did a phone screening with HR before 4 rounds of interviews, one of which required a day of face-to-face meetings. Overall the entire process from initial contact to final offer took about 6 weeks.

Question 1
I think it was hard to balance the questions about mobility and learning new things with the clear desire of the department for you to stay in your role long enough to be useful to them.
I applied through college or university. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Discover
Interview
On campus interview first that consisted of a case and behavioral questions. 45 minutes for both of these interviews. There was then a day of interviewing for the final round. 10 people made it to the final round. There was Q&A panel discussion consisting of a moderator and the candidates. There were 3 30 minute interviews with senior level directors and managers. There was a group case presentation also.

Question 1
Nothing that was really difficult. The panel discussion was something different. I have never been on an interview where the candidates all answered questions together and built off or challenged each other.
