I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Compass Lexecon (New York, NY) in Feb 2011
Interview
First interview merely consisted of basic behavioral/tell me about yourself type questions. Firm extremely interested in any programming and econometrics experience you might have.
