I applied through university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Grant Thornton (McLean, VA) in Sept 2012
Interview
All Behavioral. You don't need to worry about your technical skills as they assume you have none and will learn on the job. They want to make sure you're an individual who is not only capable of learning but can be presented in front of a client. As long as you are presentable, sociable, and competent, I wouldn't worry much about the interview.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about yourself. (basically your 30 sec elevator pitch but include some material that isn't on your resume)
I attended an interview with Grant Thornton where the questions were mostly basic, focusing on fundamental concepts, my articleship experience, and general understanding rather than any advanced or technical areas
