Interviewed Apr 2012 (took 3 months)
I had 4 one on one interviews over the course of two interview rounds. My first round was with two managers and the second one with one manager and one principal.
All interviews consisted of CV-based questions and regular interview questions, such as "Tell me about a time...". The second part of each interview consisted of case studies.
They were a bit of hit and miss with me as I did quite well in the first round, but not in the second round.
I received good feedback after the interviews.
I would suggest going through both Vault.com and Case in Point guides for case studies. In addition, you need to practice with someone. I believe that was my one problem as I had a difficult time going through some of the more complex business issues out loud and developing my thoughts to the consultants.
Good luck.

Interviewed Dec 2010 in Mumbai (India) (took a day)
The hiring process started with the company officials coming to the campus and giving a pre-placement presentation. I really liked the to-the-point way of their talking which was lacking in some other consulting firms' partners.
The first process was resume shortlisting after which they got a shortlist of 37 people out of more than 400 applications. We were then invited a brunch where they tried to give us some more insight about the firm and the type of work it does.
They came on campus for personal interviews with 4 partners. Each of them took a case interview and a little bit fit interview. After that I was given an offer which I obviously accepted!

Interviewed Nov 2008 in Shanghai (China) (took a day)
Pretalk for shanghai office. Flexibility of the interview time, since I rescheduled it.
Market sizing question: How big is the market size of Wheelchair in shanghai
There were two interviewers, both of whom were really nice. I didn't structured the answer quite well. But this question is a really simple market sizing question.
The interview only lasted around 30 minutes, including some fit questions.

Interviewed Oct 2009 in Chicago, IL (took 2 weeks)
I was first invited to network with reps from the firm at a fancy bar in my University. This got me on their watch list as I was called for a first round interview within two weeks via the campus recruiting system. The first round was on campus - I was told that evening that I had passed the first round and was invited to Chicago for the final round interviews. The final round interviews were as difficult as any other consulting interview - 2 case interviews and one "personality" interview. The cases were the usual stream of complex business issues and one partner continuously pushed for me to give more ideas.
