I applied through university. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Mastercard in Sep 2015
Interview
First round was on-campus and it was 10 min behavioral, 30 min case, and 5 min questions as mentioned on APT's website. I had a relatively challenging pricing case question, but connected decently well with my interviewer and was notified that I had moved on to the next round by 6pm that evening. Second round was on-campus after the weekend, and it deviated a bit in that the behavioral was more 15-20min and the case was closer to 20-25 min. I interviewed with a VP and had a case involving more strategic pricing rather than quantitative pricing. I was notified that I didn't make it to the final round within a day.

Interview

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Mastercard (London, England) in Nov 2018
Interview
first round consists of 2 case studies, 30mins each. They were dissimilar to a typical business case that you would do for MBB for example. Instead, its much more like a single problem that you have to solve. Will typically be a revenue problem for example or 'should we go ahead with this project'. Behavioural was about 7mins long and is basic. If you clear the first stage, second round is four 45min cases.
I applied through university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Mastercard (Washington, DC) in Oct 2018
Interview
I applied through campus recruiting. I had two on-campus first round interviews and then 4-5 second round interviews in the DC office. In addition, the super-day included a presentation, lunch, and a networking dinner the night before. All of the interviews involved a case and some personality questions/questions about why I wanted to join APT. The interview process overall was nice, and everyone I met was genuine and enthusiastic about their jobs. I turned down the offer because the work itself didn't seem terribly exciting.
