I applied through college or university. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Censeo Consulting Group (Washington, DC) in Oct 2010
Interview
The interview process for college graduates includes behavioral rounds interspersed with consulting case interview rounds. Although you might not realize it, the company is judging you at the happy hours, dinners and coffee chats just as strongly as they are when you are performing your case interviews. Shine at one and not the other, and you won't make it to the next round. Take those coffee chats and happy hours very seriously. I would indicate a strong interest in the public/private sector and demonstrate a clear understanding of what Censeo does.
The case interviews are pretty classic. The company uses prepared cases and they usually take about an hour to go through each. Be prepared at final rounds to do 3-4 cases with Directors of the firm. The cases will usually involve tables/charts of numbers, so be prepared to analyze them.

I applied online. I interviewed at Censeo Consulting Group in May 2021
Interview
Seemed like a great opportunity. Just had a first round interview that went seemingly well. However, the HR person called 15 mins late. At the end of the interview, I was offered a second round and promised an email explaining more of the case studies and topics covered within the following 3 business days. After a few weeks of silence, I was denied. Had I not been given an empty promise, this process would have been more professional.
