Typical strategy consulting process: 3 rounds (with one to two interviews/cases per round), seniority of the interviewers increases at each round. Structure of the interview is generally 10-15 min fit & 40 min for the case.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Case on the electrical vehicle adoption in Italy (written case with a decent amount of calculations, 1h prep time & 30 minutes presentation/Q&A with interviewer). Case on coffee shop adoption in Brussels (market sizing first then couple of other Qs).
I applied online. I interviewed at Roland Berger (Brussels)
Interview
Après une première sélection, j’ai été invitée à passer un test analytique en ligne. Une fois le test réussi, j’ai été contactée pour un premier entretien en visioconférence. L’échange a commencé par des questions sur mon parcours, mes motivations et mon intérêt pour Roland Berger, puis s’est poursuivi avec un case interview. L’entretien était structuré, exigeant et demandait une bonne capacité d’analyse, de structuration et de communication.
I interviewed at Roland Berger (Stockholm, Stockholm)
Interview
1 screening-interview with a consultant, then 3 back-to-back interviews. These were with senior consultants, project managers, and principal. Last round is 2 partner interviews. Cases on all interviews with different difficulties.
Classic consulting interviews - fit, case and then questions
Last part is only 5 minutes but is a great way to bond with your interviewer, especially if you can relate on their experience - do not hesitate to highlight some of your qualities
