I applied through college or university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at CGI (Fairfax, VA) in Nov 2015
Interview
Applied for the position on school career service website, got selected for the on-campus interview. It was a 30 minutes face to face conversation which was mainly behavioral; the interviewer asked series of questions and jot down your answers. Waited for two weeks to received an email arranging an onsite interview. I talked with two current business analysts at CGI for 30 minutes each. Before the interview started, there's a short session introducing the company and a lunch panel where candidates are encouraged to ask current employees any questions. After the two interviews, I filled a form which asked for my visa status, availability to start, etc. and submitted it back to the recruiter. If they like you, you should expect to hear back very soon after the onsite day. I was told a week later that they decided to move forward with other candidates.

Question 1
Nothing special. Mostly behavioral questions; one interviewer had a poker face, just remembered to calm down and articulate your stories as usual instead of losing your pace.

Interview
They were very quick to get back to me during the process, and were very well organized. The interview itself was very thorough, so you really wouldn't want anything over exaggerated on your resume.
