Interview
I applied for Associate Consultant Summer Intern on February 24 and invited to a HireVue video interview on March 17. The HireVue interview is a one-way recorded video interview where candidates respond to pre-set questions under a time limit.
They asked me 6 different questions and it wasn't that difficult but you need to be prepared.
You are a part of the product team, tasked to develop and launch a new credit card to expand credit card transactions volume share while ensuring at least minimal profitability. To develop the new product, what factors might you consider? Create a logical and detailed issue tree.
You are on a credit card company’s marketing team with mandate to launch Apple Pay to regain market share. A competitor launched Apple Pay domestically and is ahead of the curve. As a late entrant, analyze target audience, develop a thoughtful marketing promotion strategy.
One 30-minute behavioral interview and one 30-minute case interview. Interview process went pretty smoothly. The interviews were help by two different people and the person during the case interview was super helpful in clarifying questions.
Two or three case interviews - standard cases similar to those seen in case books (i.e. grocery store trying to increase profitability). Time permitting, also a few standard, non-technical interview questions
