Colloquio
I applied early November 2014 for a Risk Measurement and Modelling graduate position starting in September 2015. They emailed me back in mid February to have the first phone interview. This interview was competency based, so there was no technical question. More than a month later, I was invited to a final stage assessment day which commenced on a first week of April. After I was invited to the Assessment Centre in London which comprised an one hour interview with two senior managers of the RM&M team, three multiple choice tests with numerical, verbal and abstract, and a MD's presentation. There were morning and afternoon sessions in a day, consisting of 11-12 candidates. I attended the afternoon session at 1pm - 6:30pm.

Colloquio
One hour long telephone interview with Human Resources, followed by an assessment day with another half hour interview, this time with members of the team into which I would be hired, and three hours of aptitude tests.
Aptitude tests cover only logical, verbal and (very basic) mathematical skills. Fewer than two dozen people attend the assessment days; the attrition rate between the telephone interviews and the assessment day is, apparently, as high as 95%.
