I applied through college or university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Dow in Nov 2012
Interview
First interview at University campus, then on site. Everything was smooth and fast. I was given only two weeks to decide accept an offer or not. Multiple 30 min one on one interviews followed by going to lunch / dinner with 3-5 folks.
