Interviewed May 2008 (took a day)
Passed the interview on campus, was invited to the downtown LA office for my 2nd and final round of interview. Not a lot of technical questions were asked, but more of a trying to get to know you type of interview. I had 3 1 to 1 interviews that day. After a week i received the offer and was asked to go into the office to meet one of the VP , however i declined the offer due to lower than expectation salary offered. I would think this could be a fun place to work at, ppl seemed nice and there weren't a lot of pressure during the interviews.. However i did get annoyed by one of the interviewer who was a director. His name will not be disclosed but he was one of the rudest interviewer i have ever seen.

Interviewed Dec 2009 in Irvine, CA (took 4+ weeks)
The first interview was on campus and it was mostly a background check of the internships and experience I had. It was very casual, like any other first interview.
The second (and final) interview took place in their downtown Los Angeles office. About 10 people were brought in for a 4 round interview. Interviewed with managers and VPs. Before the interviews started the current consultants had a Q/A session where they presented about the company and opened it up to questions at the end. Also a very laid back experience, great way to get to know the company culture and talk with people. Overall a great interview process.

Interviewed Nov 2009 (took a day)
It was one of the best interviewing experiences that I have had to far. The interviewer asked me to list three things that we would like to focus on/remember for the interview. Then I expanded on those three things I chose. It helped because I was able to list my strengths and use my experiences to help back them up. The interviewer was easy going and great to get along with. In addition, I received a call instead of a mass email saying that they were not going to continue the process.

Interviewed Nov 2009 in Denver, CO (took 3 days)
1st round - two 45 min interviews at the Denver office. Generally the same questions asked in each-- behavioral; asking a lot about previous experience. I was notified about 10 days later that I was invited back for a second round.
2nd round - informal meet and greet with the younger consultants and a 30 minute case in which we had to do a presentation on a supply chain problem.
3rd round - 4 1/2 hour long process interviewing with 6 VPs/directors and going out to lunch with two younger consultants.

Interviewed Jul 2009 in Los Angeles, CA (took a day)
Was referred in by an industry contact.
Unfortunately, Hitachi has made a few waves of layoffs recently.
They are looking to staff consultants with extremely technical skills.
This does not mean they are on a pure hiring freeze, but look elsewhere if you are more aligned towards functional or process related projects.

Interviewed Jan 2009 (took 2+ months)
One interview was on campus and the next was in-office by senior management. Very nice people who are easy to talk to. Only problem I had was that I had to repeatedly call to get an answer from the HR Rep
