Standard behavior and case study interview. It was very conversational and informative on the company. The case study was not too difficult, I think they just want to see your train of thought and how you think.

Easy interview
Application
I applied through college or university. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Protiviti (Chicago, IL) in Apr 2011
Interview
Most new hires are hired directly from campus - it behooves a potential candidate to attend Protiviti's information sessions and visit booths at career fairs. The interview process includes both behavioral and case study interviews - but both are highly conversational as opposed to technical.

HR interview screened a lot of ppl away. It is used to see how dedicated you are to the industry
Interesting case interview. Can be prepared well by asking AI to prepare case studies for you.
One-one interview with MD was more about knowing you as a person.
I applied through a staffing agency. I interviewed at Protiviti (Milan)
Interview
Contattato tramite una agenzia del lavoro, è stato fatto un primo colloquio con loro, poi un secondo colloquio conoscitivo con Protiviti.
Dopo aver passato entrambi, ci è stato erogato un mese di corsi (academy) che avevano un po' la funzione di colloquio tecnico (abbiamo dovuto fare dei progettini da presentare ai tecnici dell'azienda, ma eravamo accompagnati dai nostri insegnanti). Tutto molto tranquillo, nulla di difficile.

Durante l'academy: presentazione di un progetto di gruppo fatto con altri ragazzi con il supporto dell'insegnante
