I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Booz Allen Hamilton (McLean, VA) in Oct 2009
Interview
Booz's recruiting has never made sense. I have been referred my internall candidate many times before, and never gotten called. I'm not sure why I was this time. It started with your normal phone screen from a recruiter. She just went through my resume and asked the normal questions about salary range, availability, etc. I was contacted 2 days later to bring me in for an in-person interview.
A week and a half later I had an onsite interview with 3 individuals plus the recruiter gave us a bit of background on the company. NONE of the interviewers asked me anything that wasn't directly from my resume. They were only interested in my past projects. Nothing on leadership, project management, case studies, personality, or how I would approach a problem. Key items for a consulting candidate. NONE of the interviewers had a business card so I emailed the recruiter the same day asking for their contact info to write thank you notes, however the recruiters never got back to me.
No one contacted me by the time frame promised, so I had to follow up with the recruiters. I was very suprised not to get an offer as I thought the interviews went very well and my background would be an asset to their company. I was told my "background" didn't fit in their group - information that probably would ended my candidacy after the phone screen.

Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Hiring manager asked about my general experiences to gauge my expertise. BAH employees individual meetings focused on technical questions and how I would relate technical content to a non-technical or semi-technical audience. The interview was very professional and the questions were well thought out.
