Process
Applied at the campus career fair. Got a call the same day for an on-campus interview the next day. Had a very casual behavioral interview and was asked to fly to Natick, MA for the final round. Got an email from HR a week later asking for a date to schedule for a college day interview. Had the interview in November 2013.
Questions
The technical interview lasted for an hour, but it was really simple. The behavioral interview is the deciding part, I suppose. I messed up a little in the behavioral section. Make sure you are ready for the managerial interview.
