Interviewed Feb 2012 (took a day)
It was mostly personality based. Standard behavioral questions were asked and that led to a few "Give me an example of when you've..." questions. Nothing new if you prepare standard questions. The panel interviews are largely for convenience: allow many people to evaluate your responses at the same time. Nothing is surprising.

Interviewed Mar 2011 (took 2 weeks)
The company's interview process was quick and simple, starting from the person who referred me to the person who was willing to find the right job based on my experience and what I wanted to do, to the Human Resources executive who was very helpful in guiding the entire process, to the manager who came across as being impressive without being overbearing.

Interviewed Apr 2011 in Atlanta, GA (took a day)
The interview was very basic with 2 associates. They explain the company, culture, and responsbilities of the intern. The interview was very relaxed and personality based. They were no skill tests involved and they did not expect me to have an understanding of real estate concepts.

Interviewed Feb 2011 (took a day)
I had a 1:1 interview with Marsh. The entire interview was behavioral, not even one question about my resume. The toughest question for me was "Name a time where you were on the opposite side of an issue and had to convince everyone to your side." I have yet to hear back from them, but that is because they had to "reorganize" something in HR and will let me know in a few weeks. A tough interview, but only 30 minutes long.

Interviewed Jan 2011 in Milton Keynes, England (United Kingdom) (took a day)
I was head hunted for a specific role from a recruitment agency. They advised me their was a 6 mnths contract role at MMC (Milton Keynes Office) which matched my exact skill set. I was called for an interview where I was as honest and upfront as could be, they were not specific on any particular skills in general and advised they were looking for someone who had the same overall experience as myself. I was offered the job the next day, and handed in my notice to my employers at the time. I commenced work with MMC 2 weeks later and regretted accepting the role 3hrs into my initial first training. By the end of the week, I had a phone call from the team leader who is based in Witham, Essex, giving me a grilling for my time keeping and lack of experience on one of the operating systems, bearing in mind the level of experience on this system knowledge was not highlighted in the initial interview! 7 days into the role and whilst still in training, the contract was terminated by MMC. I honest think they have done me a big favour to be honest, as I had already secured myself with interview for future, potential, decent organisations.

Interviewed Sep 2010 in New York, NY (took 1 week)
I must say I was extremely excited when I received a call from Marsh for an interview. On the day of my interview, I was informed I was going to meet with two people separately. The first interview was great. I was excited about the position and the opportunities the company has. The second interview however was not great. I was completely appalled by the interviewers professionalism. At the end of the interview, the lady looked at me and said "The only concern I have about hiring you is your age," and then said "I do not need any one calling in on a Monday morning stating they had a rough weekend and couldn't make it to work." I was completely taken back by her comment. I thought it was completely inappropriate to say. Even though the second interview turned me off about that specific department, I still would have loved to work for the company.
