Getting Hired Here
- “The process can be rapid for entry levels if you are available, and there are three rounds of interviews: The first is with HR, the second is a business case and fit interview with a senior consultant, and the third is with top management. They are looking for someone well-spoken, who has great analytical skills and is curious to learn about new things.”
- “The hiring process is not too long and not too short. It includes three interviews: one with HR, one with a business case, and one with a partner. The interviews themselves are not too far from one another. At the end of the process, HR calls you to explain everything that went right and wrong for all three interviews. They grade you so you can have a meaningful outcome of the experience whether you are offered a place or not.”
