Everyone is nice and helpful.

Insgesamt Gespräche mit 4 verschieben Mitarbeitenden auf verschiedenen Levels, alle Gespräche sehr wertschätzend aber auch fordernd inhaltlich bei den Case Studies, durchgehend Kontakt mit Recruitern mit Feedback über Prozess etc.

Interview
I had a screening call with a manager and a case study interview with a senior consultant. My case study interview was rescheduled twice. Although HR was transparent about the reasons for rescheduling, I perceived it as a red flag regarding the company's internal organization. Ultimately, I was interviewed by a senior consultant with half my years of experience, whose comments not only indicated a lack of experience but also did not reflect well on the company culture. Following that interview, I decided to withdraw from the hiring process.
