Straightforward process--a recruiter contacted me, I expressed interest, and she set me up to meet with four folks from the relevant practice group I'd be hypothetically joining. The interviews were one-on-one and generally quite enjoyable; everyone I spoke with was enthusiastic, did a great job of selling the company as a desirable employer, and it felt like a real conversation (not a bland back-and-forth Q&A). After, I was advanced to the next round (the writing test); they give you the test and you have 24 hours to turn it around. It was reasonably challenging--you had to do some background research and put real thought into it--but nothing unbearably hard. From being contacted by the recruiter to submitting the writing test, the whole process took about 3 weeks. Where the whole process fell apart is that after I sent in my writing test and the recruiter confirmed receipt of it, I never heard back from them again. At all. It's been over a month and just complete radio silence (despite two very polite follow-up emails to the recruiter). At this point, I've assumed they don't want to move forward with my candidacy, which is fine. But the very least they could do is share that information--it strikes me as the bare minimum of professionalism.
