I applied online. The application was incredibly simple. I received an email a few days later telling me to take a personality test and a matrices test. A day or two after that, I received an email saying I had moved onto the phone screening and I had to complete it that day or the next day. The recruiter called me and was very brisk. She was no nonsense and told me I had 15 minutes to answer all of her questions, so I went through them quickly. At the end of the screening, she said I would move onto the Skype interviews and I scheduled them for the very next day. I was interviewed by a woman who had recently finished this program and then by an HR rep. Both interviews went incredibly well. They were much nicer than the recruiter and we had an easy conversation. I can say that one of the interviews was a little more brisk, but overall, I felt good about the entire thing. Unfortunately, almost a week later, I received an email saying I didn’t make it to the in person interview. I would not have been able to make it anyways, due to travel plans I had previously booked, but I was astounded that they waited until a week before the in person interview to tell me whether or not I needed to find a way to Chicago and a place to stay while there. Overall, the process was very quick and it seemed like they had a specific type of person they were looking for (Ivy league and confident to the point of aggressive). I gathered this from questions i asked the interviewers and from the fact one person I spoke to said it was unusual for someone from a liberal arts background to be accepted into the program.
