I applied online. I interviewed at GLG in Feb 2017
Interview
I applied online via their website with a resume and cover letter in November. I did not hear back from them until late January. When they contacted me, I was asked to set up a date for two 30 minute phone interviews.
The interviewers were low-level employees, but they were kind and seemed like they wanted the best out of me. I did not feel that they were trying to break me down or find weaknesses. They did not ask any unexpected questions, but mostly focused on making sure I understood the role I was applying for. Information I learned in the first conversation actually helped me in the second.
After about a week, I received an email with a case-study and they gave me three days to return it completed. I returned it on the third day and received an email to set up a 30 minute phone interview discussing the case study. This was the most difficult part of the entire process. He asked very specific questions, to several of which I could give no decent answer.
After a few days, I was contacted to select a date for a series of three final video interviews with high level employees (Two vice presidents and a senior manager). Again, I felt like everyone was on my side, but these were much tougher questions. They weren't out to get me, but they wanted to see how I think.
Honestly, these were some of my favorite interviews I ever had. I learned a great deal in the process.
I applied online. I interviewed at GLG in Mar 2015
Interview
Three interviews across different segments of the business. It was very straightforward, and everyone was very nice and interesting. After the initial phone interview, you are asked to complete a practice exercise, which takes about 1-2 hours. In the last interview, you review the exercise and explain your thought process.

Interview
Had a 20 minute phone screen with a newer member to the GLG team. The interviewer called 30 minutes later than scheduled which I found to be highly unprofessional. Later had another 30-minute video call with the hiring manager.
