I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Strategy& (Milan) in May 2018
Interview
The first step was the CV screening. Afetr that, I received an invitation for an assessment test at their Milan office. It was structured in three parts:
1. GMAT - like questions (mostly quantitative): 20 in 40 minutes.
2. Mini business case: 10 financial-based questions in 20 minutes.
3. Mini essay to write in English in 30 minutes.
I found it more difficult than expected but it was a good experience overall.

Question 1
I think the first part was the most difficult one.
Colloquio con HR + 3 business case: 1 sizing + 2 casi strutturati in ambito Financial Discipline (ossia quella in cui sarei stato inserito).
Casi fatti con manager, director e un partner
Super angenehme und wirklich interessierte Interviewer, mit denen man super connecten kann. Habe ich bei MBB anders erlebt. Klassisches Consulting Interview mit Personal fit und Case Study. Der Prozess mit allen 3 Runden ist remote und an einem Tag erledigt, inklusive Vertragsangebot, welches man direkt am selben Tag erhält. Ein Interview ist auf Englisch.

Question 1
Klassiche Personal Fit Fragen (Schwierige Situationen gehandelt, Gruppe geführt, warum Consulting, warum S&...)
I applied through university. I interviewed at Strategy& (Beirut) in Dec 2025
Interview
The interview process took significantly longer than expected, and communication throughout was slow and inconsistent. Updates were infrequent, and response times made it difficult to stay engaged. A more structured timeline and clearer communication would greatly improve the candidate experience.
