I applied through university. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Altman Vilandrie & Company (Boston, MA) in Oct 2017
Interview
Two interviews lasting 45 minutes, and two general cases on TMT. Both are interviewed by hiring managers, so they pretty know what they are looking for. Cases are pretty easy as only asks about general insights on the problem and calculation.

Interview
Typical case interview, except focused on TMT topics. Thought I connected well and gave good answers but didn't move onto second round. It's hard to know what they were looking for. I don't remember there being much of a behavioral portion; interview mostly centered on the case. The people with whom I interviewed didn't wow me either, so it was fine that they didn't move me to the second round.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How would you decide whether or not to install 5G towers in Germany? (Case) (might have been another European country)
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Altman Vilandrie & Company (Boston, MA) in Dec 2019
Interview
Very straight forward and typical of consulting. Most behavioral questions were about being on or leading a team, and were clearly there to make sure you knew that joining a smaller firm means being more willing to step up and pitch in. The case style was much more McKinsey-esque command and control.

Question 1
Why do you want to work for a small boutique firm rather than a larger more brand name recognized firm?
