Colloquio
There are a total of four interviews - Three of which are over the phone, and one is an on-site business case. The first interview is a general, get-to-know-you type interview, where the interviewer discusses the general points on your resume. The second is a technical interview wherein they try to see if you have the requisite skillset to do the job. The third interview is a culture-fit interview, where they try to see if your personality matches their carefully cultivated organizational culture.
The recruiters are extremely responsive, and make decisions about your eligibility within days of your interview. My recruiter even called me to tell me they were no longer considering me as a candidate. I thought that was extremely mature and thoughtful.

In the second interview, I was asked to solve recent business case that my interviewer had encountered, presumably to identify my problem solving acumen.

Either the interviewers are liars, hypocrites, or both. The company is lost and can't offer competitive market rates.
I crushed all four interviews and case studies. They tried very hard to find something wrong with my answers, but fell short and floundered.
Just like what the other interviewees stated on this site, they will ask if you want feedback and then ghost you.

1. A company has missed deadlines, and vendors and leadership relationships are fractured. How would you fix it.

Exactly as described on their website. Prompt to send scheduling invites and quick follow up after first 2 rounds. Follow up from 3rd round took about 10 days and they declined to bring me in for a case study. The first 3 interviews seemed to go very well, so I was surprised. The “decline” email invited me to reply if I wanted to ask for specific feedback. Since the decline took me by surprise, I really wanted the feedback, so I replied right away and asked for insights on where I fell short. Still no response a month later. That’s disappointing because they invited the request for feedback, and because it seemed like they tried to foster a culture of feedback to drive continuous improvement. The lack of response leaves me with a less favorable impression of the firm than when I started the process.

Colloquio
Interviews were overly structured and largely unpersonal - difficult to connect with anyone on a personal level. The questions were very generic and surprisingly not well aligned to the role applied for. Talking points between interviewers around needs and the role were disconnected and confusing. The work put into the business case turned out to not be a good use of time.
