I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at ICF (Washington, DC) in Feb 2016
Interview
Interview process was very straight forward. Had a 30 minute phone screening before they called me into the office for a final round interview. The final round consisted of 6 30-minute interviews, each with different people in different positions that I would be working with. They were all very friendly and welcoming and easy to talk to. It was a bit intimidating, but they organized it so that I met with the most junior staff person first and worked my way up which was helpful. I heard back from them within a week after I let them know that I had a few competing offers, but they were my top choice.

Interview
Two interview rounds. The first interview was more about getting know each other, interests, the team. The second interview was with more senior staff members, a bit more on talking about technical abilities and interests, followed by a case study writing assignment. The assignment took 2.5h and was adequate for the level that I applied for.
The process took a long time. Sometimes I did not hear anything for several weeks and had to chase them, other times they were super responsive and called me spontaneously to discuss expectations. Overall positive and friendly, but at times inconsistent!
Panel interview with multiple people. Lasted two hours. Panelists were nice and professional. Described the position, asked a series of about 10 questions, asked about interest in topical area of project and technical skills.
