I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Mu Sigma (Chicago, IL (US)) in June 2012.

Interview

There was one phone round first which was all case based. I was asked questions such as calculate toll Illinois collects in one day. How much milk is sold in America everyday? After clearing this round there was a face to face round which was very general behavior questions. The third round was again face to face and very technical, all case based. I think they just wanted to intimidate me and make me feel uncomfortable. They gave me a white board and asked me to do all kind of calculations there.

Interview

Referred through a friend of mine. The HR people sit out of India, so they dont know when to call you. I got calls late in the night to discuss about my application :) Other than that it was a good overall. I had 5 rounds of interviews. 3 over phone, 2 1:1 meetings. One of them in a coffee shop and the other was a lunch, both with senior management team. They are pretty chilled out.

Was long and complicated included a few math tests and you had to solve some general mind game problems. Shouldn't be too hard but at the same time many do not get hired for some unknown reason.

I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Mu Sigma.

Interview

I was contacted by a recruiter and an initial phone screen was scheduled within a day of my response. Basic review of resume and skills. As part of round 1 there is also a "video synthesis" which consisted of the CEO speaking about Mu Sigma's values and competencies. I had 30 minutes to write down the main points, 20 minutes of which was presentation. The CEO said that Mu Sigma is a combination of Google and McKinsey (I'll allow the reader to find the humor in that). The second phone interview was with an engagement manager and lasted about an hour. A challenging and informative interview - asked specific questions about my thought process in conjunction with SAS/R/Python. Both individuals with whom I spoke with were very formal and respectful. I didn't hear back for over a month (the only negative) and had already accepted a stronger offer during the interim. The entire process was about 6-7 weeks.
