I applied through university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Wells Fargo (Charlotte, NC) in Feb 2015
Interview
The interviewer was over 45 minutes late for the interview, had others waiting. Did not apologize for tardiness. Then the late interviewer handed me off to a different interviewer who was already there, this 2nd interviewer was very stiff, did not look at my resume beforehand. I notified him that because of the interview starting late, I was slightly limited on time (because I was a student, I had to go to class). The late interviewer came back into the room a bit later, interrupting the interview and said he wanted to listen-in on the interview. He then proceeded to talk for a while, without interviewing me or asking questions.
Investment banking (IB) interviews are rigorous, multi-round processes focusing on technical proficiency, behavioral fit, and high endurance. They typically start with screening calls followed by multiple, 30–45 minute one-on-one interviews with junior and senior bankers (Associates, VPs) designed to test your finance knowledge, mental stamina, and ability to handle intense pressure.

The interview process was quite easy. For the CBO role, I had 1 hirevue and 1 interview with a team member. I felt the process was easy and enjoyed meeting people on the team.
