Initial screening by HR.
Assessment (math reading etc.) followed by 3 case interviews. Cases with progressively more senior staff as you pass each.
Very standard process for a consulting firm.

Interview
4 steps interview: 1 hr general introduction, CV, personal screening and general culture test, 2 x 1.5hr interviews with senior consultants discussing business / logic cases and guesstimates, time for questions and to discuss personal development and employees background , final motivation discussion interview

Question 1
estimate number of visitors for Milan Expo, estimate cost saving by moving 1 USA country to energy saving light bulbs
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Roland Berger (Brussel) in Feb 2025
