I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Baird (Milwaukee, WI) in May 2011
Interview
Everyone was very kind, somewhat informal. Presentation was well received and they offered good feedback. The questions were expected interview questions. This is a small firm and anecdotes and personal sharing didn't seem inappropriate. Midwestern values, focus on content and character.
Laid back in interview- they are very particular about their culture and how an intern will fit in with that culture. They only asked the basic questions, then went on to personal topics that we had in common.
