I applied through a recruiter. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Discover (Riverwoods, IL) in Sep 2016

Process took 6+ weeks. First they started off with two phone screeen interviews and then they flew me onsite. There were 4 rounds for the onsite interview. Essentially the whole team interviewed me.
A lot of behavioural questions were asked by the director, but the rest of the team focused on the technical aspect.
