Colloquio
Initially contacted through a conversation at a college job fair. Set up a 30 minute interview at the fair with the recruiter. Securian made contact a few days later to set up a full interview onsite in Saint Paul. That interview consisted of a basic ( and dated ) written programming skills test. Just going through basic programming logic. After the test there was another interview with a different HR member going over more general interview questions.
Securian paid for lunch and paired me with an associate who has been there less than three years who did not report back to anyone involved in the interview process. This allowed for some open questions about the company and advice about interviewing too,
In the afternoon there was a series of interviews with varying people from IT. These were technical interviews and ranged from interviews with engineers, leaders in the training program, to a VP of the company.
Securian called back about a week later with an offer.

Colloquio
Came to campus for a brief background interview, and then I was encouraged to apply. Applied and got an on site interview. It started with a two part test. First part was called a reasoning test, and the next part was called a diagramming test. I think if you are competent programmer/developer, both parts should be no problem, just need to focus so it can be done in the time limit. Then there were two morning interviews with two people involved in the hiring. The first interviewer asked educational background questions, the second asked questions about prior experience and behavioral questions. There were a few behavioral questions where I did not have any experience with, so they were hard to answer, but with both interviews you just need to be honest about yourself and answer honestly. This concluded the parts that were to be considered in the hiring. After that though, I had lunch with a current employee where they talked about the company and work, and answered questions I had. After that, I met with the training director where he asked some more technical questions to get an understanding of what sort of knowledge I had, so training could be shaped. This was not apart of the hiring criteria, like I said earlier, the hiring criteria was the test and two morning interviews. They also paid for hotel and travel costs.
