Interviewed Dec 2008 in Los Angeles, CA (took a day)
The interview process begins with a telephone screening asking some basic questions regarding your academic history, motives for joining the accounting profession, basic impressions of GT, and your choice and reasoning as to either tax or audit. Once approved, you are invited to the local office along with a group of other applicants. An HR representative gives you a tour of the offices and the individual interviews begin shortly thereafter. The interview process is conducted in rounds where each applicant is passed between individual managers and partners of either tax or audit. To the best of my memory, I interviewed with at least 3 individuals. At the end of the day, accepted applicants are discreetly asked to remain behind and are given a formal written offer with a tiered bonus package depending on the date of acceptance.

Interviewed Sep 2009 (took a day)
Meet and greet held the night before for candidates at local restaurant. On-campus interview the following day. Interviewers seemed disinterested about even being there. Even made inappropriate comments at the meet and greet the night before. Gave positive feedback throughout the interview, but then never called.

Interviewed Aug 2008 (took a day)
THe interview from start to finish was a smooth process, however there was a slight issue with communication. I had to chase the employer a couple of times to speed up the process. Furthermore the numerical and verbal reasoning tests were quite difficult although retakes are possible for strong candidates.
