I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at John Deere (Ames, IA) in Oct 2012
Interview
They use the STAR interview process that most companies are adopting for college interviews. They will ask you about a time you were in a situation (team project, reviewing data, caught an error) and ask what you did and how you resolved the situation.
