The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Vanguard in Oct 2010
Interview
The interview began with the recruiter asking about my background (work experience, education, etc.) Following that, I was asked what I knew about the company. The recruiter then asked why I was interested in this particular position and why I would be a good fit.
The interview then moved onto a long series of STAR questions. This was the largest section of the interview. Some of the questions consisted of:
-Tell me about a time that you had to be creative at your job?
-Tell me about a time that you had to resolve a conflict in your work place?
-Tell me about a challenge that you have faced in the workplace and how you were able to overcome it?

Question 1
Tell me about a challenge that you have faced in the workplace?
I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Vanguard in Oct 2016
Interview
The process itself was long - mostly consisting of presentations from internal employees regarding benefits and the culture. There was a group activity, a separate group discussion on something completely different, and two interviews. One of the interviews was entirely behavioral and the other was a case study. For the most part, as stated in other interviews here, they appear to be looking for the right "fit" in their culture.
