I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Acquity Group (Chicago, IL) in Oct 2010
Interview
Started off as a typical interview. I was then given the choice of about 6 different case studies to choose from. I only had to answer one. The case study was easy enough, although because I was nervous I missed an important point. They are really big on knowing a lot of information about the company before the interview.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
My case study was about redesigning a fictional furniture store's website and re-branding them. I had to describe the process I would use to do this.
Applied online. Contacted by phone. First phone screening then a call to onsite. 1 hour coding test followed by 1 on 1 interview with manager and new hire associate.
I applied through university. I interviewed at Acquity Group
Interview
After speaking at a career fair and formally applying through school's career site, I was asked to sign up for an on-campus interview slot. The interview was deemed a "case interview" but was very general and a very top-down view. It was quite simple but be familiar with the work the company does.
