Colloquio
Interview process took about 1 1/2 months. Throughout the entire process, there were a total of 4 interviews. Interview Round #1: Behavioral w/ questions primarily tailored to the company's values. Recruiter was extremely nice and the interview felt more like a conversation. Interview Round #2: Take-Home Technical Assessment where you're challenged to write a code review and create a command line program using the Google Books API, and a mentor provides feedback for refactoring the program. Interview Round #3: Pair-programming session with two team members. Guided through a pre-existing codebase. Team members were extremely patient, and open to help every step of the way as long as you continue to communicate your thought process. Interview Round #4: Consulting interview with two team members. Asked typical behavioral questions and given basic technical scenarios. Interview was a bit longer and more intense, however, just make sure you're extremely descriptive when answering the questions and all should be good.

Colloquio
3 parts:
1) phone screen
The phone screening was pretty straight-forward. Why 8th Light, why consulting, tell me
about yourself, etc. No technical questions asked that I recall.
2) technical portion - 2 parts with a timeline
Code Review - the code review asked you to review a game of tic-tac-toe and then write a code review as if you were giving this to a real person. pretty straight forward, but you have to do this in another coding language than what you do your code submission in.
Code Submission - you have to make and deploy an app that consumes the GoogleBooks API, then submit it, and then implement their coding feedback. A rather lengthy and involved process, but you can at least get a project for your portfolio out of it.
3) pair-programming/culture fit.
Pair-programming - i had two people in my pair-programming. One pretended to be the client, and I had to ask questions as the developer to create something that met their needs. My codeveloper didn't really help or talk much, so I was mainly talking to myself the entire time. Every once in a while they'll ask something vague like "Where would you like to see this project going" which I think is getting at higher level software development methodologies.
Culture Fit - was pretty intense, but they ask you some more detailed questions from the phone screening and stuff relating to their "journey to mastery" ideology.
