I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at RBB Economics (Johannesburg) in Oct 2024
Interview
1 hour online case study based interview . Didn't really focus on motivational questions. they only asked me to introduce myself and why i would want to work for the company.
The interview was a mix of personal and application type questions. One needs a good understanding of microeconomics and industrial organisation. I was asked on a case study about a horizontal merger and a monopoly.
First, one question about a project that was stated in the CV. Then there were two case studies based on examples. There was given a situation and then you had to explain what happens with the market, price, etc. After answering the main question of the case studies, you were also asked additional questions.
