Interviewed Aug 2011 in Columbus, OH (took 3 weeks)
My resume sat online for 4-5 months before I was contacted, and by that point I had nearly forgotten about applying - but from what I gathered they tend to hire in large groups. Once I was contacted, I had a quick "resume walkthrough" phone interview and then a 90 minute situational interview within a week. The next week I flew to an office for a presentation and a couple of in-person interviews. The offer came a few days later.

Interviewed Oct 2011 in San Antonio, TX (took 2 weeks)
They were in a hurry to fill my position, so it did not take too long for me to get it.
The worse part is the people they have to run your background check. I do not think they know what they are doing. Something that should have take a week, ended up taking three. I gave notice at my employer and ended up being out of work for 2 weeks until I was able to start

Interviewed Nov 2011 (took 2 days)
I applied online (via jobstreet) Nov 9. Got a call for a phone interview Nov 10 afternoon (HR). Received another call from HR for a scheduled face to face interview with the hiring manager on Nov 14. The interviewers were nice (a French and a Filipino). The French explained first what will the work be should I be hired and then they let me explain things about myself and my work experiences. The interview took more than an hour. Received a call from HR Nov 16 asking the benefits that I have from my previous job (meaning I pass the interview). Got the job offer for analyst position last Nov 29 (took so long because the hiring manager left the country) for basic pay of 30k.

Interviewed Aug 2011 (took 1 week)
The first stage was just the initial screening. The phone interview just consisted of asking simple questions such as "Why Accenture? Where do you see yourself in 5 years? What do you know about Accenture?" Then it moves onto your resume. They well look at your most recent work experience and ask about your responsibilities and how you go about them. Make sure you know your resume well and be ready to explain anything on your resume. Its nice to have a few short stories exemplifying your skills. Unfortunately, I did not get through this first round (out of three), but I have learned that you must be very well prepared. Also, make sure to have a list of great questions (a few questions doesn't make the cut) to ask at the end of the interview. It shows how interested you are and how you actually did your homework. Good luck!

Interviewed Nov 2011 in Philadelphia, PA (took 4+ weeks)
First round on campus, basic 30 minute behavioral interview - I believe a good amount of people made it through this round.
Second round interview at local office branch - much much more in depth behavioral and project-based questions, more about my though process about how and why I chose to act in certain roles in specific projects. Most difficult round by far.
Final round interview also at local office branch - extensive presentation about culture, benefits, perks, more specifics about the job, etc. Followed by 2 interviews with senior personnel and lunch. This was more relaxed than I had anticipated and a much smaller group of people interviewing.

Interviewed Oct 2011 (took 3 weeks)
I was always presented with a case that reflected client work the interviewer had recently worked on. I never had to face anything too quantitative; cases in first, second, and final rounds were all qualitative. Everyone at Accenture seems to enjoy their work and the collegial atmosphere.

Interviewed Nov 2011 (took 4+ weeks)
1st round: ~1hr 45min of phone interview, consisting of ~30min of behavioral followed by a longer case interview
2nd round: scheduled for a week later after passing the initial interview, ~1hr 30min of phone interview, consisting of one hour of case interview to start with ending with some fit questions
Final round: on-site interview, flew to the nearest Accenture offices that has the management consulting development program for the interviews, consisted of another 1 hour case interview and a 1 hour fit interview with a senior executive.
All 3 case interviews were very different and seemed to test your versatility as a problem solver. Besides looking for good analysis, the interviewers also wanted to see if you could summarize/present your findings well in the end.
Decision came about a week later.
Interview Questions
Negotiation Details
None.
The package was as fair and as expected for this position. I was happy with receiving an offer as the Management Consulting Development Program is Accenture's most selective program for new analysts, and there were very few openings available.
Other Details
I got the interview through a Recruiter and the interview consisted of a Phone Interview, a 1:1 Interview and a Presentation.
