Colloquio
This process took altogether too long. I was first contacted in early August for a phone interview. Then I was contacted about 2 weeks later for a second phone interview. After 2 weeks of no response, I inquired and was told I would "most likely" be asked to interview in person. I was contacted a few days later for the in-person interview. This consisted of an "IQ" test and four 45-minute interviews. When I arrived, I was placed in a small room where I remained the entire morning. Each interviewer came in individually. I was not given a tour of the office nor any literature on the company. I already had a phone interview with one of my interviewers that day, so that interview was repetitive and unnecessary. All the interviewers asked the same questions repeatedly. The HR rep told me that he would get back to me in about 4 business days; it has been over 3 weeks and I have not received an email, phone call, nor letter response. I have obviously lost interest as this company seems disorganized and inconsiderate.

Colloquio
There are three rounds of interviews. The first is a simple behavior interview conducted over the phone. The second round is another phone interview, with two parts--another behavior interview, and a "logic" question. There are no case studies in any rounds--the brain teasers instead simulate the type of thinking process necessary in the consulting realm. The questions are not overly difficult, but as they do not relate to business problems, it can be hard to prepare for them, and they may not actually give you a chance to display your true skill. The final interview is held at their HQ, where you have a 4 hour interview consisting first of a Wonderlic test, followed by several one on one interviews which mix behavioral interviews with more brain teasers. Overall, the interviews are not too tough, although I did not get an offer, so perhaps I am underestimating the toughness. You just have to hope the brain teaser is one you can understand easily. Also, it may take some time for them to get back to you about whether or not you will get an offer. If you do really well, you will likely hear back immediately. Otherwise, it may take upwards of a month or longer before you hear for sure whether or not you get an offer, or if they will decline your application.

Suppose you could go back to 1990 and start any business you wanted. What would you choose? Why? What would concern you with your choice?

Very long interview process. Did not reimburse me for a day's worth of traveling to and from the interview. Felt like I did great during the interview, but got no feedback until they gave the job away two weeks later. The interview itself consisted of 4 one on ones with people who work there. Each had different questions. One focused on my resume and experiences, another asked me intelligence questions, another asked a bunch of behavioral questions.
