Friendly first round with a consultant - with a good flow. They were happy to answer questions about the team/ role and this was the main thrust of the conversation. They weaved in probing questions whilst asking about my career/ motivations so far.

I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Russell Reynolds (Singapore)
Interview
7 rounds including a screening-cum-discussion with HR....very lengthy and spread across an extended period of time. But it's as thorough as it can be making sure both the candidate and employer are as sure about each other as possible. They try their best to circumvent this by having frequent check-ins to keep you warm and conveying openly whatever feedback has been relayed especially if they think you will be "the one". There are also some proficiency tests depending on your position.

Question 1
Why do you want to enter search compared to another industry. Can you describe the work you did at your previous workplaces.
Thank you for your time and sharing your experience with us. We are happy to hear that you have enjoyed the interview process and that you feels that every meeting was meaningful.
Lengthy and thorough - met with 8 people before getting to offer stage and had two social conversations as well. Good to meet the whole team, though, so welcomed that aspect
