I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Public Consulting Group (Boston, MA) in May 2014
Interview
I was called into the Boston for an office interview. I had three individual interviews (Business Analyst, Consultant, and Senior Consultant) with your potential team members. The interviews were great, just review behavioral questions and try to be calm/yourself. Just prepare good questions to ask them, it shows you really care. Few days after the interview, i was asked to provide references.

I applied online. I interviewed at Public Consulting Group
Interview
The interview process was straight forward but it is disappointing that they let me know after sharing the benefits that they internally took some other candidate. The interview was a 2 step interview with a call from HR for initial screening,
first 30 min recruiter phone call, then 1 hr chat with members of team and behavioral questions, case study you get the day before and presenting your work over an hour long call
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Public Consulting Group
Interview
The overall interview process took about 3 weeks and was well organized and smooth. It started with a HR recruiter reaching out to schedule a 30 min phone interview. It then progressed to a 1 hr skills interview with a senior technical business analyst and a final interview with the product owner. The interview was mainly behavioral and questions about your experience. The interviewers were very kind and invested in the discussions.
