I applied through university. I interviewed at SmithGroup (San Francisco, CA)
Interview
I actually got the first interview through a professor at my school, but I still had to fill out an application and produce a CV. I interviewed twice and was offered a position within a few weeks after the final interview. The interviews were casual and comfortable, but felt as if they were rushed.

Application
I interviewed at SmithGroup (Chicago, IL)
Interview
that was good. they were 3 people and it was 30 min. they asked about everything and they seemed to be so good with me how ever they did not accept me for the position.
The interview process was for a entry level position and was fairly standard for an architecture firm. There was no hard-hitting question. I got the sense it was mostly to evaluate if you would fit the company culture. I did have to walk through my portfolio and give examples of problems solved, team issues, etc. on projects.
