ICF Research Assistant interview questions

Applied online in January via college job site, initial email contact in February, phone screening in April, onsite interview (all expenses paid) and job offer in May. The process was very well streamlined so you knew where you were in the process and the next step. I had four 30mins interviews back to back, lunch, then a 45 min writing test. Know your past projects well (research, programming etc) and be able to talk well about your resume. Also be able to eloquently explain why Research Assistant/consulting and why you.

After sending in an application in October 2016, they scheduled a phone interview in early December and I was then asked to come in for a final round interview in mid-January. Up until the final round interview, the process was relatively smooth and pleasant, and I enjoyed the over-the-phone interview with a current employee. In mid-January I traveled to the Fairfax office for an all-day interview and met a number of people, from lower-level to senior employees. In the interview they told a group of us interviewees that there were multiple positions open and we should hear from them within two weeks (typical). I never heard back, despite sending individual thank you letters through the mail and sending three follow-up emails to the HR coordinator January-March. I would expect a large consulting firm to not follow-up after a phone interview or even a short in-person interview, but the lack of decency to even send a rejection email astounded me considering the amount of resources they devoted to scheduling a six hour interview in their Headquarters. Since interviewing, I've spoken with multiple former employees who are happy they left, citing increasing disorganization and hierarchical tension.
