I applied through other source. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at General Mills in Jan 2014
Interview
submitted my resume online and was contacted by the recruiter in charge of the position via phone. Did a phone interview with him, which took about an hour. He asked questions regarding my resume, why I wanted to work for General Mills, and what interested me about the position. After the interview, he wanted me to have a 2nd phone interview with someone who had been through the program before.
The 2nd phone interview happened around 2 weeks after the 1st interview. It was all behavioral based questions. Again, took about an hour with him asking questions for 30 minutes or so and me asking him questions the rest of the time.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How did your result add help to the company in a percentage?
I got selected for an initial interview after talking with them in a recruiting fair. The interview was half technical / half behavioral. After that I received a call later that night for a second interview the next day. But before that interview I had to complete some sort of online assessment which was quite difficult and took me more than an hour to complete. In general the process is a little bit complicated.

Question 1
If you were to meet people from other cultural and ethnic backgrounds. How would you communicate with them effectively?
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at General Mills (Cedar Rapids, IA) in Jan 2013
Interview
The phone screen was great it was 45 minutes to 1 hour--they expressed extreme interest in keeping contact in case another company was going to scoop me up first.
They contacted me about 1 week later wanted to get me to an onsite interview in a hurry. Almost making it sound like I landed the job.

Question 1
It's all situational. Questions are fine. They are all about how you do on the amazing Wonderlic test. it's a 50 questions test and you have 12 minutes to finish. They tell you the test has a small impact on your total review. But it's almost a deal breaker. They also give you a Hogan personality assessment test. Answer politically and do not give the honest answer. Tell them what they want to here and realize it's about the test not the actual interview questions. They need to focus on what is value added.
