I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Strategy& in Dec 2014
Interview
Maths, reasoning, logical tests, CV screening, first round (2 interviews, more maths and reasoning tests) and final round (2 interviews, presentation). A very long, tedious and repetitive process. Several contradictory communications throughout the process (e.g. I received a rejection email after first round although I was in fact invited to the final round). I had a particularly mean Principal for my final round interview. I didn't like the people there, I wasn't impressed with the calibre of people and I'm glad I was offered a much better position elsewhere.

Question 1
After the case question was given at the beginning, I asked politely if there were any other objectives that I should be aware of. The unpleasant interviewer responded aggressively by asking if I wanted him to go back and ask the client.
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.
