Interview
I applied for Ipsos Business Consulting. The process took 2 weeks. I sent my CV, Cover Letter through their email and a HR Manager replied me after a few days to take a test. The test was relatively easy, they want to test you on data analysis, numerical skills and logical thinking process. The test was 2-hour long. Right after the test I had 2 separate interviews with 2 Managers. They were quite relaxing. The questions are typically what they ask in interview - tell me more about yourself, your background, why consulting, why Ipsos and they explained about the kind of job to expected and typical working days. After that I got a call the next day from one of the Managers to attend the next process - Case Presentation. They gave me a week to complete it and present to the Senior Managers. It went well and I got the offer right after.

Interview
I applied through their official website and got called for interview the same day. There are 2 rounds of interviews with one case study assessment. It went smooth and the hiring manager was very friendly
Mainly do the case interview, about 30-60 minutes each round, 3 rounds in total. The interviewer is kind, nice interview experience in the consulting company compared to other consulting interviews.
Relatively straightforward interview process with 3 stages (Consultant, Manager, Partner).
Really enjoyed interviewing with them, unfortunately it took extremely long to hear back after the interviews (4+ weeks). Even after asking for an update repeatedly, I was just told that there was more time needed for a decision.
