I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Oliver Wyman (Paris)
Interview
First interview : the interviewer was rude, 15 minutes late, and was yawning the entire time , but they made me pass to round 2
Round 2 : the interviewer tells me that my case study performance is great and that he hopes « to see me again very soon ». Verdict : did not pass to round 3
The feedback was not reflecting my performance in either of the two interviews, the HR reps do not respect our time and don’t care to change our interview time 3 times on the day of the interview as if we did not have anything to do
The first part were two on-site same-day consecutive 45-minutes interviews with engagement managers, candidate-led cases with some behavioural questions as well. If selected to the second round, what followed was an online interview with a partner, mostly behavioural questions but also specific technical questions based on the feedback from the first round, in order to see if there was an improvement.

Question 1
How many passengers travelled through Paris airport (CDG) during the olympics?
First behavioral interview super annoying that it is 3 at once. Typical tell me about yourself and why oliver wyman. The interviewer seemed like already made up the decision and it was very uncomfortable to undergo the interview.
Did not recieve a callback.
There was an online assessment which tested mostly mental math and reading graphs. Then, there was a 30 minute case interview and a 30 minute behavioral. Fairly straightforward and standard, with the case being easier than average.
