The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Oliver Wyman (San Francisco, CA) in Oct 2017
Interview
Submitted resume through university career site and heard back about a week later inviting me to a first round at the campus career center. 30 min case and 30 min behavioral interviews. Case was simple and case interviewer very nice and supportive throughout the case. Behavioral was straightforward - why consulting, why OW, etc. One of the people who interviewed me called me personally the next day to let me know that they were not inviting me to next round. Overall felt very good about the whole experience despite not getting an offer!
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Oliver Wyman (Sydney) in Mar 2026
Interview
First, we are given an AI interview with questions to answer on video. They only give 45 s to answer questions. Then there was a face-to-face interview, where it is 2 x 45 mins, where it is the same thing with 2 different people on seperate occasions.
First you take an online assessment. There are two rounds. First is one hour: half case, half behavioral. The first round is with younger analysts. Everyone was nice and supportive, also was on zoom.
2 rounds
R1: 30 min case 30 min behavioral. Case and behavioral weren’t difficult and seemed more like a vibe check.
R2: 2 x 30 min cases and 30 min behavioral (this interview was with much mkre Senior leadership)
