It was a 3-round process, and it all went pretty quickly and smoothly. The first round involved a video interview and an online assessment that was pretty hard. The second round was with an HR person. The final round included interviews with 3 different people on the team, ranging from Senior Associates to the MP level.

Behavioral Technical Case
I first had a phone call with a Principal who gave me more info on the company and internship. Then I took a logical reasoning assessment and set up 3 more phone interviews. Each had behavioral and technical questions and one had a case questions. Then I had a phone call with a Partner and I mostly just asked him questions. Overall not too bad; do your best on the case and technical--they are very friendly people.
