Behavioral Technical
The interview process kicked off with a 30-minute phone call involving the recruiter and a senior consultant. Initially, the recruiter led with behavioral questions, and then the senior consultant transitioned to technical questions that were tailored to my specific background.

Behavioral Technical Case
The interview process was great and HR coordination was top-notch. After applying in early October, I got a response in November for a 30-minute phone screen. It included behavioral questions first, then technical questions from an economic consultant. After that, I was flown to DC for a 3-hour superday. This involved several 30-minute interviews with more senior firm members who asked typical behavioral and technical questions, plus a 1-hour case interview. The firm provided a 4-star hotel with a suite and covered all travel costs, which was very generous. I'm still waiting to hear back, but overall, I liked the recruitment experience.

Technical Behavioral Case
The interview process started with a phone screen where I was asked some technical questions. The next round was a super day, which was basically a series of interviews. Most of them were behavioral, and then at the very end, there was one case study. The case study wasn't really designed to eliminate candidates and felt more like a way to gauge my interest and give me insight into the types of questions and factors they deal with on the job. The super day itself was really long and tiring, with no breaks; they could probably improve it by reducing the number of people you have to talk to.
