Interviewed Oct 2010 (took 2 days)
All case interviews. Some heavy quantitative cases were presented, with exact answers expected. Be sure to know how to duplicate what you would normally do in Excel on paper. One open-ended case to solicit general business ideas, although had the feeling that the interviewer was playing "guess what I'm thinking" as opposed to being open to new ideas.

Interviewed Jan 2011 in London, England (United Kingdom) (took 3 months)
Applied online (standard CV/covering letter), invited after application deadline for first-round interview in London office. Format was 2 1:1 interviews, each with case studies and competency questions. Invited back for second-round interview with same format, plus a presentation (prepared in advance). Every interviewer was friendly and open, and seemed more interested in getting to know you than catching you out.

Interviewed Jan 2012 in London, England (United Kingdom) (took 2 days)
First day - two interviews, each 45 minutes, with CV discussion and case studies.
Second day - same thing but with more senior people, plus a five minute presentation that I'd been given the title of three days beforehand, and five minutes of questions on it.
Example question - what factors would you consider in estimating the rise in demand for bicycles in central London if the tube and the buses were closed down?
