I applied online. I interviewed at Robert Walters (Tokio) in Mar 2023
Interview
I applied online and was contacted by someone within a week and they said they were interested. We had a short interview a week later where the process was explained to me. They said out my cv to all the departments after which three were interested in my profile and I had back-to-back interviews with all three departments which lasted about 30 minutes each. Only one of the three continued the interview process and I had another interview with different people in the same department. All three interviews were about a week apart.

Tell me about yourself
Why would you like to work in recruitment?
Have you applied to other recruitment firms?
Why Robert Walter’s?
I met with 6 people in total, the interviews were fine but it lasted for more than 1.5 months. They asked all the questions that other people were mentioning here.
1) phone interview/screening: general questions based on resume
2) manager interview: get to meet each team's manager and get to know about the teams
3) country manager interview: mock-trial for headhunting

Question 1
self-introduction, what interested you to become a headhunter, etc..
Had met several consultants from several teams. Also at the end we went quick drink with few consultants and it was the final interview. Until then it is the process of the interview so be careful.
