I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at nd-Insight (Toronto, ON) in June 2019
Interview
One phone interview, In-person Case interview, and Managing partner lunch. The phone interview was standard experience questions. In-person case interview was a mix of behavioral and experience questions followed by a one-hour data analysis case (review this infographic and pull out 6 themes). Partner lunch was informal (Saturday) and he did most of the talking. The role is heavily weighted towards researching.

Interview
3 rounds of interviews. First round is on the phone with a partner, definitely a stress test. Fairly standard in the industry as the firm wants to see how you perform under pressure, especially if you are in a client facing role. Second was a behavioral with the partner, had the option to choose between a restaurant or the office. Last round was a case with another partner in the office.
