Interviewed Apr 2010 in Stamford, CT (took 1 week)
First there was a quantitative skill test to filter applicants who make it to the interview. Standard behavioral questions. Nothing too difficult.

Interviewed Jun 2010 in Westport, CT (took 2 weeks)
I heard about the position from a personal referral and applied through their website, so they emailed me back to set up a phone interview the next week. That went well so they called me in for an assessment of 10 math questions and 2 case studies in 90 minutes which was challenging, but as long as you move quickly you can complete. A day or two later they emailed me back to set up an in person interview, which consisted of 3 40 minute interviews and a lunch with a senior analyst. The interviews were part behavioral part analytical: some questions easier than others. The office seemed very relaxed and dress was business casual at best, friendly people and nice location.

Interviewed Nov 2009 in Stamford, CT (took a day)
It was great; my interviewer was friendly and made the entire process clear. She was very sociable and easy to talk to and very knowledgeable about the company.
I only received a phone interview and after I 'passed' it, I was administered an analytical assessment that was largely math-based and had two written components.
All-in-all, my communication with HR and my interviewer was flawless and prompt. It was a great experience.

Interviewed Oct 2008 in Stamford, CT (took 2 weeks)
The phone interview took 45 minutes with the HR representative who asked very detailed questions about the skills and position -it resembled a one to one interview with hiring manager. Then they scheduled a skills test at the Stamford, CT office that basically required algebra, statistics and marketing skills and it totally required to study a bit. From personal and experience I noticed people there are very "clicky" and it seemed to be a difficult environment to feel comfortable at -from the receptionist that was totally incompetent to the bureaucracy of management about which school you come from and what your major is while disregarding knowledge, potential and eagerness to learn. I would not apply for a job there again.
