I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at FTI Consulting (Los Angeles, CA) in Sep 2012
Interview
four interviews were required. the first was with a managing director in the local office. felt disastrous but a second interview with a senior managing director in the same office followed which went much better: may have been a personality issue. Third interview was with a senior managing director from another office and fourth was a phone interview with the lead of the practice.
Not very organized, HR went silent after multiple rounds of interviews. I did one initial screening, then an online assessment, then an interview with a peer then a case study. After all these rounds, HR went silent for weeks until I got an automated workday message saying I was not selected.

Question 1
Why FTI? Why now? Why would you like to move companies?
Typcially 4-5 rounds of interviews - early interview with recruiter, then with a few peers/team members, written exercise then 1-2 informal conversations with partner-level team leads for the final rounds.
fully ghosted, never responded to any emails after. interview was very standard though, no surprises. why you wanna work here, what is your research experience, whats your goals, how do you deal with conflict
