The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Public Consulting Group in Jan 2011
Interview
Had a phone interview with a person in HR. Everything you would expect, running through your resume and going into detail about some of your past work. Got called 12 days later for an in-office interview. That interview went well (at least that's what I thought). The first 30 minutes was with a current Business Analyst that asked mostly behavioral questions. The next 30 minutes was with a Senior Consultant who asked questions about my current work, which was the easier part of the interview. Six weeks go by and after repeatedly calling them, they finally got back to me only to say that they were going with someone else. This part I found to be ridiculously unprofessional.

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.
