      I first applied through the school's career center, did both the first and second round on campus. Both first and second rounds were 45 minute interviews with 1 behavioral and 1 case question each. The questions were very quantitative.

      Business Consultant Interview

      12 Nov 2018
      Anonymous interview candidate
      London, England
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Mastercard (London, England) in Nov 2018

      Interview

      first round consists of 2 case studies, 30mins each. They were dissimilar to a typical business case that you would do for MBB for example. Instead, its much more like a single problem that you have to solve. Will typically be a revenue problem for example or 'should we go ahead with this project'. Behavioural was about 7mins long and is basic. If you clear the first stage, second round is four 45min cases.

      Washington, DC
      Declined offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Mastercard (Washington, DC) in Oct 2018

      Interview

      I applied through campus recruiting. I had two on-campus first round interviews and then 4-5 second round interviews in the DC office. In addition, the super-day included a presentation, lunch, and a networking dinner the night before. All of the interviews involved a case and some personality questions/questions about why I wanted to join APT. The interview process overall was nice, and everyone I met was genuine and enthusiastic about their jobs. I turned down the offer because the work itself didn't seem terribly exciting.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Asked me case questions like how would I approach launching a new product or switching manufacturers.
