Interviewed May 2011 in New York, NY (took a day)
It was an 1:1 on campus interview.
I have met 3 people from Opera
they asked me business case types of questions, plus my motivation for consulting and Opera in particular.
I didn't make it, but also I was not really interested by consulting in general.

Interviewed Jan 2011 in London, England (United Kingdom) (took 2 months)
I applied for this position in October 2010 and got invited to a first round interview in November. However, It took several months to actually schedule the interview. I felt that the firm was a bit too disorganised in the recruitment process. Nevertheless, the first round consisted of 2 interview: both of them started with a few general behavioral questions and then ended with estimation cases.

Interviewed Oct 2011 in New York, NY (took 2 days)
Reached out to recruiter after meeting them at Career fair. After several attempts, finally got a response and got scheduled a first round interview. 1st round took place on campus and consisted of 2 - 45 minute interviews, one with principal and another with analyst. Brainteaser and case study were given in 1st half, behavioral for 2nd half. Interviewers were very nice and cordial. Invited to 2nd round in Downtown LA, also consisted of meeting with principal and analyst for 2 - 45 minute interviews. 2nd round was considerable easier, we talked about interests and they answered any questions I had about the company.

Interviewed Dec 2011 (took 4 weeks)
I submitted my resume through a friend, interviewed on campus, and then had a final round interview at the office. The interviews were relatively straightforward with a case section and a behavioral section. Everyone was very nice and made the interviews as easy going as possible. Make sure to prepare for cases and regular (behavioral) interviews.

Interviewed Nov 2011 in Jersey City, NJ (took 4 weeks)
First round was two back to back 45 minute case interviews. First case was simple, something about credit card fees and attrition. Second case was about starting a business in Collegetown. Second round was three back to back 45 minutes. One was fit. One case was probability, the interviewer gave the probability of 3 different possibilities and you had to calculate the expected profit. Second case was about the profitability of building a bridge.
