Interviewed Sep 2011 in Boston, MA (took 2 weeks)
I applied online for the Associate analyst position at bridgespan.I had to write and essay as well as include my resume to complete an initial application for the position. I received a call to schedule and interview and was interviewed the next week. The interview consisted of two back to back interviews, 45 mins each. For each interview the first 10-15 mins were on my background and reason for wanting to join the firm while the remaining minutes were case study questions

Interviewed Nov 2011 (took 2 days)
2 different interviews, both were one hour long and all case. The first one asked to do calculations without a calculator. When they called and left a message I was excited. But then they called back and told me I wasn't moving forward with the interview process. I think it would have been nicer if they had emailed...

Interviewed Dec 2011 in New York, NY (took 3 weeks)
First interview: Case interview given over the phone. Straightforward case with simple quantitative elements. Focus on integration of qualitative setup and quantitative evidence to drive conclusions.
Second (final) interview: Three in-person interviews. 2 Case, 1 "fit". One case was straightforward consulting case. Second case was more free-form. Don't be thrown off by free-form - stick to consulting rigor and organization. Overall vibe was friendly and relaxed but don't get too relaxed. Remember that they almost all come from for-profit consulting backgrounds and are looking for polish. Stay sharp.
Interview went very well but I did not get an offer in the end. Competition is very high.

Interviewed Nov 2011 (took a day)
I applied online in the fall for an Associate Consultant position. The online application consisted of a cover letter, resume, and a short writing sample. I was contacted for two back to back phone interviews, and made it to the final round, which consisted of three back to back in-office interviews.

Interviewed Nov 2011 in Boston, MA (took 2 days)
The interview was broken up into two 40 minute sessions, consisting of a ten minute behavioral interview and a 30 minute case interview. The interviewers were encouraging and friendly, although they seemed a little bit bored during parts of the interview.

Interviewed Dec 2010 in Boston, MA (took a day)
Case-style interview x 2. Back to back - both senior-level employees. Study case!!! Not much time for behavioral questions. It seems that they use case to weed out applicants. Math portion was reasonable, but they do test for a strong gasp of strategic frameworks.
