maybe it COULD talke up to 3 hrs. I've been in interviews that lasted about as long. Nothing out of the ordinary.

the recruitment Girl said it will take 3 hours

This could mean different things:

They keep you waiting for 2 hours and 55 minutes before your 4 minute 'interview'.

There are several other things they'll have you do (psych, aptitude tests) in addition to the interview.

They'll be processing you in a group (everything takes longer in a group).

Some combination of the options above.

to me that sounds like a recruitment day where you will have an interview ... take some tests and possibly take part in some role plays to see if you can work in a team well

thats my take ..

The interview could include an aptitude test and other paper work. I recently got hired immediately after my interview and the whole process took about 3 hours.
