I applied through college or university. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Morningstar (Evanston, IL)
Interview
Got the interview after an on campus meeting during a career fair. Had to submit resume and cover letter, which was followed by a request to submit video recorded answers to a couple of behavioral questions. This was followed by a final technical interview by a Senior Developer, who asked a mix of behavioral and technical questions. Whole process took around 2 months.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Morningstar (Chicago, IL)
Interview
The communication between the company and myself was good, and their recruitment/HR representative was quick to respond to any messages (including a rescheduling). It is a little annoying that they only really handle interviewing two days per week, but we were able to make it work.
Interview consisted of a phone screen as well as a few hours of in-person interviews in their office. In-person interviews involved problem solving/code reviews with a few engineers, talking with a project manager about the company and general "how would you deal with scope creep" kinds of questions, and a culture fit conversation.
You are also given a code challenge, with 40 or so minutes to complete as much as you can.
Unfortunately, they offered a rate of pay substantially smaller than what was reasonable for the role they were interviewing for.
