I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Grant Thornton (London, England) in Jan 2011
Interview
Second interview - face to face case
Case questions around a small business that was losing money. It was a small hot water manufacturer that was having trouble controlling costs through the process of rolling out a new hot water heater. The ask was to dig into the drivers of cost and identify potential improvement opportunities. Case formed about 40minutes of the overall interview.

Interview
Le processus de l'entretien est rapide et efficace. Ils sont très professionnels et les questions posées sont très pertinentes. J'ai l'impression ils ont vraiment regardé mon CV avant de faire l'entretien, qui n'est pas toujours le cas chez d'autres cabinets.
Interviews were not hard but took more than two months. Went through 4 rounds of interviews just for them to ghost me. So rude and unprofessional. Clearly they dont care about their people or people trying to join.
