4-5 interviews, started with directors, moved on to associates, and ended with senior management. All chats were informative and a place to ask questions while getting a feel for the team.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Silicon Valley Bank (Palo Alto, CA) in Jul 2015
Interview
Very friendly, but professional. They definitely stress good culture and promote work-life balance. Everyone I talked to was extremely kind. First round was a phone interview, second round was a video recording for behavioral questions, and the last round was in the Palo Alto office. The office visit lasted from 10-4, and after meeting with about 10 people there was a 45 minute writing sample.
