I applied through university. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Johnson & Johnson (London, England) in Jan 2016
Interview
Numerical test at university, video interview then assessment centre. Whole process was okay, however didn't receive an offer. Assessment centre included group exercise and presentation. Numerical test was simple with low pass boundary, and the video interview was very simple, asked questions about university and course etc. Group exercise fairly straightforward and interview had some challenging questions but simple enough to answer if prepared. Questions are competency based. Whole process took about 2 months.

The whole assessment centre lasted a day (about 6 hours)
