Im ersten Gespräch wurde mehr auf mich eingegangen, meine Motivation, mein Lebenslauf etc.
Im zweiten Gespräch wurde ein sehr komplexer Fall behandelt.
Vor dem Vorstellungsgespräch sollten 2 Fragen auf Englisch vorbereitet werden:
1) What makes Simon-Kucher stand out as being different or interesting compared to other consultancies?
2) Tell us about a product or service of your choice that you feel has a clever marketing strategy.
Die Atmosphäre war in beiden Gesprächen positiv.

I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Simon-Kucher (Luxembourg) in Feb 2012
Interview
The application/interview process for the intern role was very straightforward for me, containing just two 45 min phone interviews upon sending in a CV and cover letter. The nature of the conversation was very friendly and not intimidating. The interview was mainly structured in an informal conversation about my previous experience and skills relevant to the job as well as the reason for applying to consultancy/SKP and then a numeric and pricing theory question in each case.

Question 1
The question that took me off guard the most was pertaining to the angel between both arms on an analogue clock at 14.45. Most difficult would be my view as to how to boost profits using a pricing strategy
