I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at State Street (London, England) in Mar 2012
Interview
Straight forward questions based on the one one interview. Two interviewers male and female, quite friendly in their approach. They begin with an introduction of the company description of the role you are interviewing for and then they open the floor with questions and they expect you to ask them questions as well.
Process consisted of 2 rounds of interview on Teams, both for half an hour. First round was with the Vice President, and 2nd with the Managing Director. Both were very nice and offered a lot of information about the company.

Question 1
What I knew about different currencies, investment vehicles, languages.
Relatively straightforward interview process with the initial phone screening with a recruiter then meeting with a AVP/Manager. Mix of general behavioral and technical questions and a breakdown of what’s expected for the role.
