I applied online. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Robert Walters (Manchester, England) in Jan 2016
Interview
1st stage imterview with internal recruiter
2nd stage interview with two line managers from same department handling term or perm
3rd stage interview with two associate directors
4th stage interview was a quick meeting with the managing director
Employees at RW are very professional but approachable! They make the interview process more like a general chat than an interrogation. Definitely a good approach!

I met with 6 people in total, the interviews were fine but it lasted for more than 1.5 months. They asked all the questions that other people were mentioning here.
1) phone interview/screening: general questions based on resume
2) manager interview: get to meet each team's manager and get to know about the teams
3) country manager interview: mock-trial for headhunting

Question 1
self-introduction, what interested you to become a headhunter, etc..
Had met several consultants from several teams. Also at the end we went quick drink with few consultants and it was the final interview. Until then it is the process of the interview so be careful.
