I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Boston Consulting Group (Boston, MA) in Oct 2012
Interview
2 rounds, 5 interviews
Each interview with 15 min fit, 25 min business case, 5 min questions
Interviewers are very friendly and willing to help with the case. Critical to have good "stories" for the fit portion. Case interview felt more like a discussion but it is important to "drive" the case to a recommendation and not just wait for the interviewer to ask questions.
I interviewed at Boston Consulting Group (Hô-Chi-Minh-Ville)
Interview
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.

Tell me about your most difficult work experience and how you handled it.
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.

Question 1
Tell me about a time when you felt you had to compromise on your values.
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.
