I applied online. The process took 2+ months. I interviewed at Simon-Kucher in Feb 2019
Interview
They called on skype due to pandemic, after the cv screening they reached out, another headhunter company was conducting the interviews for them so if we passed that level then they were inviting to another interview at the office with the consultants
Nearly one month after applying and not hearing back at all, I received a mail asking for availability to have a call the very next day, which I gave. The next morning, at 8am sharp I received a call from a random number, he didn’t heaven introduce himself properly, and just asked a couple of super general questions (background and why consulting, why SK) before hanging up. Never heard back from them since (3 months ago)
