Please describe the interview / hiring process.
First round 2:1 interview but only talking to one interviewer at a time. First part is brief background for maybe 5 minutes, then 40-45 minute classic economic consulting case led by one interviewer. It's a classic damages assessment case, you have some conceptual questions, some mental math, and some more conceptual questions towards the end. I wasn't the fastest on the mental math and finding numbers that I had previously written down, but strong economic intuition towards the end. Then you have 10-15 minutes of behavioral questions at the end.

Got a call two days later to schedule a superday for around 2 months later (I applied late so I think that's why my date was so late). Superday was 4 one-hour interviews, a 45 min coffee chat, and a 30 min wrap-up, took pretty much the whole day (9am to 4pm). Two were cases and two were behavioral. You end with some logistics. Heard back the following week. Interviews overall weren't hard but superday was grueling in terms of length.
