I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Oliver Wyman (Toronto, ON) in Oct 2011
Interview
Started with a standard resume, cover letter, and transcript submission. Then I had to take a timed online mathematical and reasoning test. First round interviews were held at my university and consisted of two 30-minute case interviews. I soon got a call inviting me to second round interviews which were held in Toronto. They took us all out to dinner the night before and put us up in a hotel for the night. Second round interviews consisted of 3 case interviews and one resume interview. Overall, everyone I met was pleasant and approachable and it was a very enjoyable recruitment process.

Interview
Tough case, not very receptive interviewers. Did not seem excited to be there. The case was tricky. Did not involve any business sense or quantitative skill review, rather was really a test in different ways to judge things. Overall not a fun experience
