I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Sense Corp (Austin, TX) in Oct 2013
Interview
I turned in my resume during an career fair at my university, and got an email back around 3 weeks later. The recruiters will reach out and hold info session, plus social lunch every week. They boast on their cultural which is very relaxed and family-like. They started with almost 130 people for interview and narrow it down to 12-13, so don't feel special when you got an interview request. They tried to interview as many people as possible. For a small company, the competition is surprisingly big.
First round is behavioral, second round behavioral+case, third round is not technically an interview it's just a social dinner with senior management. Very standard questions. They mostly just want to see if they would like working with you or not, none of the questions I got had to do with any skills or qualifications, so try to be as likable as you can be because that's one of the main things they're looking for.

Question 1
Case interview is very informal, not number based at all
I applied through university. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Sense Corp (Austin, TX)
Interview
This is a very culture-centric company, so a huge majority of what they measure is cultural fit. They use their "compass" to vet future consultants, which has the four categories of Creative, Brilliant, Human, Fun. Because this is a smaller company, you will interview with HR, experienced consultants, and program managers. All of the people are very personable, so let your personality shine!

Question 1
During my case study, I was asked to make a recommendation way before I had sufficient information. I realized, though, that the reason they asked for a recommendation so early was to test if I was cocky and if I acted on whims. It was a fast-paced interview, so I am glad I responded honestly and asked more questions to clarify the case before making a recommendation.
