Interviewed Mar 2009 in Boston, MA (took 4 months)
It took awhile to get an offer, I was first contacted in December and wasn't given an offer until late march. I interviewed 1:1, then 2:1 with two groups, then a phone interview with 3 employees, but all of the questions were mainly about my resume/experiences. And interest in finance

Interviewed Aug 2008 (took 5 days)
The hiring process was relatively painless. I interviewed with HR, and a Manager. Mostly straight questions, a few behavioral. Walked through the floor to see the work atmosphere and see what someone in that position would do on a daily basis. Received an offer for full-time employment. I began about a week later on a monday.

Interviewed Mar 2010 in Boston, MA (took a day)
The interview was really friendly and informal, though trying to test the depth of my knowledge of financial products and the methodology and conclusions of my memoirs of studies, dealing with REIT mispricing. The Manager of the accounting department was getting into more and more business specificities, whilst the HR manager was trying to bring back the conversation to personal questions.

I interviewed for a contracting assignment. There was an initial round of phone interview where the interviewer talked mostly about my experience. Following the phone interview, I was called for a in-person interview which included three rounds of interviews with project managers within the group.
