I applied through university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Fannie Mae in Sep 2019
Interview
The interview process consisted of two interviews. The first was a behavioral interview on campus at my university Career Center with a hiring manager. About two weeks later I had the second interview, which was a behavioral/technical interview (mostly technical) at their Reston, VA location. The second interview was three 30 minute interviews with three separate software engineer managers, each heavily technical, and a 30 minutes meet and greet session beforehand with other managers and candidates. After about a week and a half after the second interview I heard back from them.
The screening interview was a fast and straightforward behavioral question.
The technical interview was straight-up question grilling for an hour.

2) Java concepts
3) AWS platforms and technologies

I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Fannie Mae in Oct 2021
Interview
Recruiter reached out to schedule a call. Never called me at the designated time, so I sent out an email asking if the call would still be going forward. She wanted to reschedule, so we rescheduled for the following day where she proceeded to never call again. I reached out again and within a few hours received a canned email saying I hadn't been selected.
