The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Fannie Mae (Washington, DC) in Dec 2011
Interview
I researched the company before the interview and thought of questions to ask when the interview concluded. The initial interview on campus consisted of just one 1:1 interview. I received an email from them asking if I would like to go to an in-office visit. That consisted of an informational session with three 1:1 interviews following.

Mostly behavioral and virtual. It was pretty easy the lady was very friendly and it was an enjoyable interview. She asked a lot about my interests and technical experience. The email communication with the recruiter was efficient.

Question 1
Tell me about yourself and what makes you stand out.
It was ok - the interviewers mostly asked questions on work experience. They seemed mostly concerned about work experience with financial industries, working in team environment, and experience with SQL.
phone interview followed by panel interview. somewhat technical. Mostly behavioral questions and about your experience . offer within 2 weeks . getting interview is very tough . lot of competition. Most jobs are hired internally. salary is negotiable. benefits are good.
