I applied online. I interviewed at Grant Thornton (Alexandria, VA) in Dec 2016
Interview
I was contacted by a recruiter, interviewed on client site a week later, and was hired the next day. More often than not though, prospective employees would be brought to GT corporate first to have a face to face.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Do you understand how consulting works, and recognize that you are reporting to both the client and a corporate entity?
I applied online. I interviewed at Grant Thornton in Mar 2017
Interview
I spoke with the recruiter, who asked me to send additional documentation for some of my projects. After sending the additional documents, and contacting the recruiter 3 times, I realized I was not going to receive a response. This was the most unprofessional interview experience I have ever had. Traditionally you are told that "The company will be moving in another direction". Very disappointing.

Interview
The interview went very well. I met 5 people included one partner, 3 managers, and 1 senior associate. They didn't ask too many tax technical questions. In general, just went over my resume.
