I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at RBC (Chevy Chase, MD) in Apr 2014
Interview
The interview was pretty easy because I prepared well and did my research. I also had a friend that had held a similar internship that helped me prepare. I also think that reading at least 5 articles from The Economist is also a good idea so you are able to make sure that your interviewers know that you stay educated on the current market atmosphere.
It was a few rounds, pretty dry. think they used fake names because i was unable to find any of them on linkedin after, or even find their emails to send a thank you note
20 minute call with a senior person and a more junior person. found it okay but there were some hard technicals at the end. I would say that you should know everything before even a screen interview.

Question 1
Why RBC Capital Markets and why this business area.
Great process, great company, really enjoyed the entire thing and would interview again if given the chance or need. I really like RBC as a company and I think others would as well.
