I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Synchrony (Chicago, IL) in Oct 2018
Interview
Everyone involved in the process was very friendly and straightforward. After initial on-campus interviews, I was invited to Synchrony's Chicago office for final round interviews. These lasted all day, and included breakfast and lunch breaks with other analysts and employees. There were several one-on-one behavioral interviews, each of which touched on different aspects of my background and skill set. All of these were very conversational, and each interviewer left time at the end for questions.

Question 1
Tell me about a time you had to overcome a disagreement or conflict within a group?
There were two rounds of interviews, both were fairly straight forward. The questions asked were not surprising. After second interview, you’ll hear back from them within 2-3 weeks. The recruiter was very kind as well.

Interview
SYF is super focused on the true leadership component of the program. They feel confident about the supply of grads with technical ability, but they want to pick out leaders. Be ready to discuss intangibles just as much as technical skills or your past experiences. It was a very friendly and rewarding experience to interview here.
