There is a first round phone interview. He asked about some IQ testing and a few high school math problems then ask me to have a onsite interview.
The onsite was a panel interview and they asked some general questions, such as C++ and programming.

I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at FINRA (Rockville, MD)
Interview
Placed through an agency, one phone interview. Not actually what I had applied for but I have some skills in common with this position and not enough experience for the primary position, so we tried this out knowing it was a long shot. Phone interview was a postponed briefly but they did call to inform me so I wasn't waiting not knowing.
No particularly difficult questions, just SQL and C++ related which I am weak on (it was a long shot, as I said).
