I applied through university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Johnson & Johnson (New Brunswick, NJ) in Sep 2015
Interview
First round interview description only:
Met with two GOLD Associates (one graduated, one was in his first year) at my university. Was your typical STAR styled behavioral questions. Focused on leadership, morality, teamwork, etc. As a college student, found it difficult to provide robust results, as they wanted quantifiable information. The interviewers were super nice, and asked clarifying questions in order to write more detailed notes about you.
Know about their credo, the program, and the company. Be prepared to answer "why J&J? Why The Gold Program, and Why you are better suited for the role than other candidates. Attend career fairs and information sessions at your college if possible- the people interviewing you are typically the same people at these events, and having them recognize you is a step up

Eerst een cv-screening, vervolgens een uitgebreide persoonlijkheidstest, dan een cognitieve test in de vorm van een game, en tot slot een motivational interview. Na deze stappen volgt het assessment gedeelte waarin je een case zal moeten oplossen.
Aplicas y posteriormente te mandan una prueba donde consideran tus habilidades y personalidad. Después de eso pasas a la entrevista donde te hacen las típicas preguntas y tienes 2 minutos para contestar cada una. Es grabada.
