The process took 2 months. I interviewed at CBRE (New York, NY) in Jun 2011
Interview
I got an email from HR wanting to set up an initial screening phone call. (why cbre, why real estate, walk me through your resume, etc). A couple of weeks later, I was invited to the offices in NY for two 1:1, both were behavioral. Know share price, etc.
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
Describe the different areas that make up the NYC Real Estate market.
I applied through university. I interviewed at CBRE
Interview
There was a first round phone screen. Then there was an interview in their New York office. Both of the interviews were straightforward with no surprises. Essentially as you would expect interview to go where most of the concern was about fit and enthusiasm for the field and company.
I applied online. I interviewed at CBRE in Nov 2014
Interview
Filled out initial online application. Received an invite to take a video-submission based interview. With this, there were 8 behavioral questions. They were a lot tougher than the other interviews I had done, more obscure. You had 30 seconds to read the question and come up with a scenario, and 2 minutes to answer the questions.
Personally, I wasn't asked any questions about the company itself, but they did ask me a question about my commercial real estate experience.
They included one question on ethics as well.

What was an ethical dilemma you have faced in the workplace? How did your supervisor react to the situation? How did your actions affect the company as a whole?
