I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at McKinsey & Company in Feb 2014
Interview
I was told that I would go through 3 interview rounds. First being "fit" interview, second one for "skill test" where I had to bring in my own laptop and research for about 5 hours. More random interviews were requested after.

Question 1
As the position I applied for was "research", there was no PST or case interview. For the skill test, I was given about 3 hours for first exam and additional 1 hour for the 2nd exam. Both had about 7-8 questions each, asking to find trends, facts, articles with supporting data, stats and more.

Interview
Written Exam -> 1st round interview -> 2nd Round Interview
I didn't take PST surprisingly. The exam tested on your logic. You had 90miniutes to finish. If you had previously studied for Lsat, it would be Easy.
