Interviewed Nov 2010 (took 2 weeks)
I applied online and was called up for a brief phone interview with one of their current Analysts. It was pretty straight forward - a few behavioral questions (tell me about a time when...) and a few general resume and personality questions. I was then called into the office for a series of 4 one-on-one interviews. 4 other applicants were there with me. A lot of the interviewers asked the same questions, so it got a little hard to keep things fresh. Everyone was very nice, but the office I was at had a certain "frat boy" attitude to it. A couple of my interviewers mentioned that they were looking above all for someone who they could get along with when they were staying in the office till 2 am. Not a bad interview process, but not exceptional either.

Interviewed Apr 2010 (took a day)
I had applied for a position of an Analyst online and HR called me to have a quick interview on the phone on my experience and skill set. About a week later, HR called me again to invite me down for an interview. The interview involved 2 interviewers whom the position of the role would be directly reporting to. The questions consisted of my working experience and my background. There were also some details of what the job scope would entail. I did not meet their hiring requirements that they were looking for an analyst with experience in a certain domain which I did not have. I felt that it was not stated in the job description clearly and it was apparent as well in my resume that I did not that experience in that domain. Overall, the selection process should be more thorough so that the interview would not have been a waste of time for both parties.

Interviewed Dec 2009 in New York, NY (took a day)
This was a very interesting interview process, I applied online and a week later received a phone call from the HR recruiter wanting to arrange a superday at their New York office. In essence they flew me out to NYC without any phone screening or on campus interview.
The interview was short, two 30 minute two on one interviews.

Interviewed Nov 2009 in North Sydney (Australia) (took 2 days)
Initial contact with the company was via a recruiter who set up the first interview with the Director of the team.
First interview lasted 2 hours, and questions included the usual "what did you do in your last job", "why did you leave", as well as DCM-specific questions. Shortly after leaving the interview, I received a call from the Director asking to set up another interview the following afternoon to meet the rest of the team (five others in total).
Second interview was to last a couple of hours, however was approximately six hours long, and culminated in having some beers in the boardroom with the team. Primary aim of the process was to meet the other members of the team as well as have the opportunity to ask appropriate questions about team structure and associated specialties.
Everyone who interviewed me were extraordinarily knowledgeable in their specific field, and had no problems in answering any questions. Consequently, I perceived the team to be young and dynamic, with a strong desire to outperform for FY2010. In addition, I felt that I would not only be able to offer my time and skills in pitches and other job responsibilities, but also my opinions about the market, where our priorities should be, as well as how to execute our strategy for 2010.
Very happy with the position I was offered
