Interviewed Jan 2012 in Washington, DC (took 2 weeks)
I was contacted by the recruiter via email. We set up a time to talk, and I went through an initial basic interview for 30 minutes over the phone. I was invited in to interview with a few senior managers. The interview was set up 1 on 1 style with three sr managers. After a couple days, I was invited to a final round interview. Interviewed with another senior member. Offer made about a week after.

Interviewed Nov 2011 in Arlington, VA (took 2 days)
Consisted of four 1 on 1 interviews which were done in two rounds. The first round was on campus and focused primarily on personality questions (describe a time). The first interviewer was really nice and laid back and seemed to really want to prepare you for the next interview. The second interview was more difficult for a couple reasons:
1. Interviewer had someone of an accent and spoke very fast. It was hard to understand the questions at times.
2. He seemed to rush through the questions and yawned all throughout as I answered his questions which I found to be rude. I'm pretty sure these were the last interviews of the day and he just wanted to leave.
3. You better know your stuff technically because he threw a lot of technical questions out there. Luckily I got most of them.
After the first round, I got an email asking me to come in for a second round which was on location. A group of us were all selected for this and we took turns being interviewed on a 1 on 1 basis. These interviews didn't seem to be as technical, but a little more in depth than before. I felt the first interview on location to be a little awkward since the person interviewing me told me they actually didn't really know what to ask me since they usually don't do them and I was asked a lot of yes/no questions which made it hard to elaborate. The second interviewer was very professional and was ready with questions, but laid back at the same time as well. Expect a callback within a week or so.

Interviewed Aug 2010 (took 3 days)
I knew some people that worked for Deloitte ERS so my interview process was more informal and shortened than is probably typical - I spoke with a Senior Manager I knew in a more 'off the record' manner as he offered to be a sounding board for any thoughts/concerns/questions I had to help me make my employment decision.
Someone from their Talent/HR department also reached out to me similarly - but it felt more like they were making a sales pitch to me (explaining what the company did, the types of projects and clients, etc). I did of course go over my own experience but it was more conversational and did not really even feel like an interview.
Looking back, I do wish I would have been put in contact with people that wound up being based out of my office and on my team - one of the managers at the time called me and gave me a 'phone interview' but she seemed really distracted and didn't really do much on that call. (She wound up quitting two months later).
Interview Questions
Negotiation Details
I think at a non-management level, they honestly underpay compared to similar jobs in the industry (non-Big 4). So I knew that coming in, and got what I expected - they basically offered me a small, nominal raise over my current salary so they wouldn't look bad, but it really made no difference to my paycheck amount. To be fair, I didn't try to negotiate after the first offer (but did throw in some negotiating type arguments before the offer), but I dont think they would really give much more in salary. They are a very cost-focused company, to a fault.

Interviewed Apr 2011 in Houston, TX (took 4 months)
I was called in for an office visit. It was a 9AM to 2PM affair where another 8 candidates were present. Recruiter came up to us and explained how the day would be structured. Then a bunch of consultants came and were paired up with each person. They were responsible for showing us around and taking us to our interviews. First interview was with a manager who basically asked me to run through my resume. Second interview was with a partner, this was very laid back and more like a conversation. He did ask one question:
Tell me about a time when you were in a team and conflict arose, how did you deal/what was your role?
After this all the candidates and consultants got together and we went for lunch. My advice:
Never let your guard down, you are being judged the whole day.
Make sure that your passion for joining the firm comes through.
Ask intelligent questions.
Dress to impress :)
