I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Booz Allen Hamilton in Feb 2008
Interview
I was contacted by a recruiter looking to fill an analyst position. After agreeing to proceed, I was given the phone number of a hiring manager and told to call him at the end of the business day. I called the manager as requested and spent the next half hour listening about the position, the firm and answering a few generic resume quetions. After passing the prescreen phone interview, I was asked to do a face-to-face interview in the Booz Allen regional office. This was less of an interview and more of a sales pitch on why I should join the firm. Given the firms positive reputation at the time, I took the bait.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Booz Allen Hamilton (McLean, VA) in Feb 2009
