I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Boston Consulting Group (Chicago, IL) in Mar 2012
Interview
Very friendly interviewer. Questions are normal cases, but I made several mistakes on Maths... I did it too quickly but didn't double check it. One question expect you to show some creativities. People should be prepared for the math. Review the case frameworks

Great learning experience. Interviewers were candid about the nature of the roles. Great support from HR, with prompt feedback after each round. There are many online resources to help with case interviews.

I interviewed at Boston Consulting Group (Atlanta, GA)
Interview
Two back to back interviews. Each consisted of 15 minutes of behavioral questions and 30 minutes of a case study. One interviewer was more senior and asked harder hitting questions with a more challenging case. The other was more straight forward.

The interviewer had to change time the day before even if it was scheduled 1month ago. I had two interviews. The first interviewer seemed quite indifferent. They were both nice conversation tho.
