Applied online. Then after 2 week directly got a mail from admin assistant saying they want to set up a phone interview. Phone interview was half an hour call with a senior market research manager. Basic questions about market research and general walk through on resume. After 3 days got a mail again to appear for a virtual case study analysis. Case study analysis for close to 3 hours. First 15 mins were about giving information on case study. next 2.5 hours was for analysis and presentation preparation. Last 15 min debriefing.

I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Alphadetail (San Mateo, CA)
Interview
It started with having two hours to analyze some data from a former project and assemble a 10-20 min presentation complete with conclusions and suggestions. You'd then present and take questions and have a discussion over your findings.
Then you interview with a few of the directors and they'll either discuss past work experience, possible work scenarios, or have you look at various forms of data presentation and see if you can discern pertinent information.
Overall, you're looking at about a 4 hour process.

Question 1
They showed me some graphical representations of data that I had never seen before and asked me to explain back to them what they meant. I had one that I couldn't understand. The interviewer eventually walked me through it.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Alphadetail (San Mateo, CA) in May 2014
Interview
Three round process.
Round one - Behavioral, could be with more than one person
Round two - Case Study, usually given three hours
Round three - They call you onsite for a presentation in front of a panel. Post that, there are a few one-on-one interviews with senior management
Their interview process is a little stringent, but it makes sense why, since they want to hire good talent. However, the company should change their interview style now. And, should try to introduce new case studies to candidates.
