I applied online. I interviewed at Expeditors (Seattle, WA) in Nov 2013
Interview
Was interviewed by two separate groups. The first group was upper management and they were very nice and it was mostly a get to know you type interview. The second group was lower level management and they asked more technical questions and reviewed a EDI test that you took in between. They were pretty rude.

I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Expeditors in Apr 2016
Interview
I meet the recruiter at a job fair at my university and followed up by applying on their site. They requested a phone screening and an interview shortly afterward. The in person interview is a 3 hour multi-tier interview on-site. In this case, at the Seattle office They follow-up within two weeks with a yes/no.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Questions are based on STAR format which I wasn't familiar with. My answers won't help you since I didn't get the job and I didn't follow this format.
1. Describe the worst customer service you've ever given?
2. How would you get a team member/customer who isn't responding to respond to a request?
3. What was your favorite course in college?
I kept getting asked if the skills assessment test was something I'd like to do and what part of the skills assessment test would be my favorite part of the job.
Skills assessment was easy. Basic QA test, IF/THEN logic and reading a SQL query. You don't even have to get the skills assessment right (from what they say) you just have to walk them through your thought process.
