The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Roland Berger (City of London, England) in Dec 2011
Interview
2 rounds :
- first one:a 30 minutes test based on GMAT, not too difficult but very short time plus two 45-min one-to-one interviews made of CV chat, competency questions and short not-too-difficult cases.
-second round: 2 1-hour interviews (with Partners) , a couple of questions on CV + competencies and 40min cases, more complex.
I applied online. I interviewed at Roland Berger (Brussel)
Interview
Après une première sélection, j’ai été invitée à passer un test analytique en ligne. Une fois le test réussi, j’ai été contactée pour un premier entretien en visioconférence. L’échange a commencé par des questions sur mon parcours, mes motivations et mon intérêt pour Roland Berger, puis s’est poursuivi avec un case interview. L’entretien était structuré, exigeant et demandait une bonne capacité d’analyse, de structuration et de communication.
1 screening-interview with a consultant, then 3 back-to-back interviews. These were with senior consultants, project managers, and principal. Last round is 2 partner interviews. Cases on all interviews with different difficulties.
Classic consulting interviews - fit, case and then questions
Last part is only 5 minutes but is a great way to bond with your interviewer, especially if you can relate on their experience - do not hesitate to highlight some of your qualities
