Please describe the interview / hiring process.
They found my resume through the PE Association of Chicago resume book. I got an email to schedule a phone interview with an associate. That was followed by two separate in-office interviews with VPs around 45 - 60 minutes each. Didn't do very well on the last interview at which point I got cut.
All of my interview consisted of mini case studies, accounting questions, and the usual tell me about yourself.
The people I talked to seemed "brainer" than at other PE firms. They definitely take a more consulting approach to diligence.
