Interviewed Feb 2010 in London, England (United Kingdom) (took a day)
I had a phone chat with someone from the company. It wasn't difficult and she was very friendly, but I didn't get a second interview. I didn't have any experience in the field. She asked me about my background and some basic behavioral questions. She also asked about my career motivations and business knowledge. Nothing tricky.

Interviewed Jan 2008 in London, England (United Kingdom) (took 2 days)
Initial interview followed by phone conversation. This followed by 2 stage interview process of first round presentation then partner interview. Content of the presentation was dated and generic - not aligned to my sector knowledge and experience. The attitude of the presentation reviewer was to try to trip me up, and was confrontational. The partner interview lacked candour, and felt artificial.

Interviewed Jul 2008 in London, England (United Kingdom) (took 2 days)
The recruiter pitch the new role and see if it's of interest. The first interview was via a phone for a quick assessment of skill and interest of moving to their company. The 2nd interview is more technical / skill testing followed by a HR general questionning. Overall the whole session takes around 4 hours in total.

Interviewed Jun 2008 (took a day)
After submitting my online application, I got a phone call from the HR department. We agreed on an interview the next week. The interview mainly consisted of small talk, there was no such thing as a case study or elaborate questions on my professional background. I got the offer for an internship right after the interview.

Interviewed Sep 2009 in Manchester, England (United Kingdom) (took a day)
There was a personality test on the application form, and from that test they decided which competencies to interview you on. They tell you these competencies in advance of the interview to allow you to prepare. The competencies are:
Business Focus
Building Relationships
Leadership
Problem Solving
Drive and Resilience
Career Motivation
Making an Impact
Task Management
They chose to interview me on five of these competencies.
I wasn't made an offer but I did receive detailed feedback about areas for improvement.
