Colloquio
Great experience. Really happy with the whole process. First job after graduation and really excited to go to work for State Farm.
First interview was by phone. Studied up a lot on "Tell me about a time..." type questions. I can usually handle those questions quite well, but studying paid off immensely as I had rehearsed notes directly pertaining to a few of the questions asked. Only one caught me off guard, but I answered the rest pretty well I think.
For the second interview I flew to Atlanta. Was interviewed by three Systems Analysts. With only a handful of exceptions, the questions were all technical. All questions pertained to either Java, object oriented concepts, software design principles, or databases. I was really weak on my databases and bombed nearly all those questions. I program Java on a daily basis and nailed all those questions OOP questions.
As for the database questions, after they finished their questions I knew I screwed those up and explained took the time to explain why. I hadn't worked with databases directly in over a year, but I was confident I could re-learn them quickly and it wouldn't be a hindrance. I find honesty is the best policy in these situations, and I think the interviewers thought I was sincere. The DB questions were mostly basic vocabulary.
Advice for fresh grads if you get a second interview:
Study up on all the basic OOP fundamentals.
Study your database vocabulary and know things about basic queries: joins, locks, transactions, etc.
You should already know Java. If you don't, good luck.

There was a written test and a panel interview. The interview consisted of an interview with the hiring manager, then HR, and a group of peers that asked job-specific questions. At the conclusion, I was allowed to ask any questions I felt I had.
