I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Strategy& (Berlin) in Jul 2016
Interview
- Short presentation of the company.
- First interview (manager). About 20 min of personal fit questions, followed by ~30-40min case and a few closing questions. A bit awkward: The interviewer had a written-up solution of the case lying in front of him, which he had downloaded from a case library (originally a McKinsey case).
- Second interview (associate and director). Same structure as the first interview.
- Written case: 25 min time to prepare + ~10 min presentation in front of 3 interviewers.
Atmosphere was OK.
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.

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.
