I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Medtronic in Mar 2015
Interview
One phone call with manager
One phone call with members of team
The phone call was pretty casual. A talk to see what I wanted out of the internship and an ample amount of time for me to ask questions. Come prepared.
The talk with the team was mostly about my resume and skills. How I would apply them to the role.

Question 1
Discussed the position with manager (prepare lots of questions!)
Team asked questions about resume
Pretty standard. Interviewer is nice. Tell us a little bit about your background and yourself; Why us? Why this city? What is the formula for WACC? There is an apple tree in the backyard – sell that tree and the apples that fall from it

I applied through college or university. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Medtronic (Mounds View, MN) in Mar 2016
Interview
On campus interview, and then in person interview (because I was in the area, otherwise a phone interview) with the group. Mainly behavioral questions about how I work with others and how i approach a problem. The interviewers were very friendly and the overall process was very straightforward and relaxed, but the process was quite late in the semester (Spring) and offers weren't given until April.
