I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Kearney (Dubai) in Dec 2014
Interview
The first round interview process went very smooth, especially considering that I was interviewing outside Dubai (where I had applied) via Skype. Both interviewers for the first round were very friendly and were really interested to get to know me and what I wanted to achieve.
I was selected to progress to the second and final round but while HR was looking to schedule my final round they turned back saying that they will not progress with my candidacy!

Question 1
Some highly difficult case study on Insurance diverging to Healthcare industry. The partner already had in mind some other candidate. Utter waste of time
I had Multiple interviews from Personal Fit and several Case interviews (final interview with partner). Interviews were remote and time was flexible. Had to the chance to get to know company “coffee call” before initiating interview process
There were 2 rounds of case interviews, after which I got the offer. First one was with partner, second with manager. Was quite straightforward and short (10-15 minutes each). Overall a good experience
