I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at State Street (Kansas City, MO) in Feb 2013
Interview
I was interviewed for multiple positions & they managers that interviewed me helped the company decide which department would be the best fit for me & their analysis/placement was spot on. There were multiple questions but they were more about cultural fit & defining my base skillset, there was no technical test & I could tell the requirements for being an acceptable candidate were pretty low.
It was a stress free process; be warned though they will run a credit check & you cannot have outstanding debt in excess of a certain dollar amount due to regulations.

Question 1
Do you know about macros, how good are you with excel, what do you know about SSB?
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.

It was a very memorable start to a wonderful career. Very friendly and frank about the company and what new hires need to be proficient in, to hit the ground running.

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.
