Solicité el puesto a través de la recomendación de un empleado. El proceso duró 4 semanas. Acudí a una entrevista en PA Consulting (Londres, Inglaterra) en ago 2021
Entrevista
• 30min HR interview for an intro chat + 1 guesstimate question. I was not warned that there would be a guesstimate even though I asked.
• ~1 hr case study with a consultant. Had to prepare a few slides on a particular company's performance and challenges to present in 10min. There were some follow-up questions after the presentation.
• ~1hr competency-based interview + market sizing question with a consulting analyst.
• informal ~45min chat with a partner. A few questions around why PA, why consulting, but was very conversational and informal. At this stage, the partner will give you feedback on the spot on whether you'll be given an offer.
• HR feedback call where you get the offer and discuss benefits.
Overall, the interviews were easy and people were very friendly and pleasant. My only red flag was with HR, they did not warn me about the guesstimate despite apparently many interviewees flagging that to them. Their communication was also incredibly unprofessional.
