I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Gensler (Atlanta, GA) in Apr 2016
Interview
The interview process didn't take long. I applied on a Wednesday night and heard back from them on a Friday evening. Interview was scheduled for that next Wednesday with two designers. Interview was like your standard interview. They asked all the basic questions. Was a little intimidating at times because you're interviewing for the top firm in the world.

I applied through university. I interviewed at Gensler (London, England)
Interview
Recruited by in house HR consultant from a graduate show. Asked to come in for a first stage interview with one of the head designers in interiors department. Was booked in very early in the morning after the grad show and had to wait a very long time to be seen after the interview was scheduled for. the offices were very nice and staff seemed friendly so it wasn't too bad. Then met with 2 members of the team in a meeting room and became more of an informal chat interview as I don't think they were expecting to do it at the time. But they were very nice.
