I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Robert Half (Chicago, IL) in Jan 2014
Interview
They will make it sound like a great job, and that your experience in accounting will REALLY help you sell accountants to other accounting professionals. In reality, you'll be chained to a desk for 45 hours a week, calling the same line managers that have ignored the last 40 staffing managers before you, all because their company had a 2 week bookkeeping project back in 2007 and corporate deems them a "recoverable client."

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Robert Half (San Jose, CA)
Interview
There was a phone screening with the Office Manager and Director. Once I passed the screening, I had to complete an in person interview with the Office Manager and the Director. Afterwards, I met the team and received an offer the same day.
Multiple in person interviews, met up for dinner with the entire team as the last portion. Very conversational, compared to hard hitting questions. Friendly team and easy to get along with.
