I applied through college or university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Kroll (Provo, UT) in Sep 2016
Interview
It was very relaxed. Only technical questions were asked. I got the interview through their campus recruiting. Just know your valuation models. They will ask you to compute either the WACC or discounted cash flows, but the recruiter will help you with it if you don't have a finance background.

I sent my application via website, it took two or three weeks until they contacted me with the invitation to the "assessment center".
The interview was very strange, they were 2 VP's coming in and out from the room simultaneously, with their question list that they were simply reading. In some cases, they did not knew where did the previous interviewer finished the last question.
