I applied through other source. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Control Risks (Shanghái, Shanghai) in Aug 2008
Interview
Initial communication was with country-head level leader for whom I had previously been an intern (years prior). Additional follow-up interview with practice-leader head who ran the project team that I would be a part of. Written tests on Chinese language skills (essential for the role) as well as English writing skills (ability to write in a professional, sophisticated, and polished manner is also essential to being successful in the role). Third round of interviews with would-be peers, HR, etc. Salary negotiations with HR and hiring manager, pretty straightforward. Start to finish one month.

Question 1
Chinese language reading and writing test is a doozy for some.
L'entretien de conseil était bien organisé et professionnel. Les questions étaient standard et l'interviewer courtois. L'expérience a été conforme à mes attentes, sans surprises particulières. Une procédure classique et efficace pour ce type de poste.

I applied online. I interviewed at Control Risks (París) in Dec 2019
Interview
I was first interviewed by the head of the team for about 30 min to make sure I had the right skillset and our ambitions were aligned. After I was invited for a written assessment, in which I was asked to complete two tasks of analysing business risk and giving recommendations. One task was in English and the other in French. I didn't get the job, but I had an overall good experience and it seems like a good place to work.
