I applied online. I interviewed at NextEra Energy, Inc.

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at NextEra Energy, Inc. (Juno Beach, FL)
Interview
My interview process consisted of two phone interviews with director of Information Management followed by an all day in-person interview session with several members of the trade floor and the software development teams. I had to take a day off of work to meet with everyone. From the time I talked to the recruiter until the time I finished interviewing was about 4 days.
After that, the process slowed down substantially as I had to wait for the results of a drug test and background check. That took almost 2 weeks. An offer had been made, but was contingent upon my passing those two things. I was on edge for those two weeks so that I could put in my resignation at the job I was working at.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The business questions about commodity trading were the toughest at the time because I was unfamiliar with the business, but that was a known weakness of mine so it didn't affect the job offer. I think they were just testing how well I could figure stuff out.
The programming questions were softballs. I had to design a couple database tables for a simple data model and write a query joining some tables together. I had to describe my experience using Java, Oracle, MySQL, VB/VBA and Excel. Excel was a huge piece of the programming puzzle there.
