Fairly simple process. Went to several networking events, completed application, and took part in two 1:1 interviews.

Nothing was particularly difficult or unexpected. Several questions about markets and how to evaluate credit risk. To be specific:
1) You mentioned you study finance/economics. Tell me about the economy. Where do you see markets going? Specifically, you mentioned you're interested in housing. Where do you see the housing market going?
2) How would you evaluate the credit risk of a company?

The rest of the questions were extremely behavioral. The company is very interested in fit as opposed to having a major technical background.
