I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Deloitte (New York, NY) in Sep 2009
Interview
Recruited by a "sourcer" who finds resumes on the web. Interviewed first by a recruiter by phone. Selected for on-site follow-up "Interview Day". Interviewed with 4 people including a Partner from my specific practice area. Don't be afraid to challenge conventional wisdom. The people are all very intelligent and friendly. They want to add smart and capable team mates. Leave you humility at the door. Expect to work hard, learn much and play hard.

Question 1
Describe a difficult customer situation where you had to take a position that was opposed to your primary champion at the client.
Thorough with good communication throughout the process. I first had a phone call with an initial screener. Then the hiring director, VP and MD. A few rounds. very standard questions. Usual prep required.
Clear interview process. Steps well explained. Candidate required to present a business case which felt a bit like providing free consulting. They were very good on p[roviding feedback ion interview performance and also getting back to candidate within the timescale they had promised
