The first part of the interview was a presentation about the company with HR (quite general). After that, there were two case studies, one with each interviewer, which were quite complex. Other than that, there were the same general behavioural questions from the two interviewers. Overall, a rather negative experience. HR said that I will get a feedback the following day and they never called.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
2 case studies, one with an estimation question and one with computations
I interviewed at Simon-Kucher (Stockholm, Stockholm)
Interview
I had 3, 1-hour long interviews with different people. 2 with senior consultants and the last with a director. The first was more heavy on the social aspect, with a 30 min case. The others were much shorter on the behavioural side.
I applied online. I interviewed at Simon-Kucher (Milan)
Interview
Processo nel complesso abbastanza lineare, ho applicato tramite il portale poi mi hanno fatto fare un colloquio conoscitivo e 2 casi di market sizing abbastanza semplici (ci tengono tanto a vedere come ragioni)
Went straight into case study without any behavioral questions or discussion with the interviewer. Average interview/ difficulty but I was just not prepared for the layout since it was my first consulting interview.
