I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at GLG (New York, NY)
Interview
My interview experience at GLG was extremely positive. I initially interviewed for a Research Manager role. I had one 15 min phone screen, then a 30 min phone interview with the hiring manager and then got through to the third round which consisted of 7 different people interviewing me (back to back) for almost 3 hours in person. The process was pretty standard--they asked what I knew about the company, made me explain my past experience and how it would related to the job description and I got a simple case study asking me to identify contacts for a client.
However, after all this I got a phone call a week later saying that the hiring manager was a little hesitant about putting me in this role because my experience was all based in academia. She wasn't sure how I would transition to corporate but still wanted me on the team. I was offered a different role that was slightly junior (pretty equal compensation) and I accepted.

GLG sends you to lunch with a few would-be peers, then puts you through a half-day of interviews with various managers/team leads throughout the firm. The questions focus on case studies for above and beyond client service and how you work under pressure.

Walk me through my resume, asked about recent current events, why I wanted to work there, how I would respond to client situation, was quite an easy interview. Would do it again.
