I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Roland Berger in Jan 2013
Interview
Two telephonic interviews during first round. First interviewer was quite precise in his 'fit' questions. Second interviewer asked more or less general questions about why consulting, RB etc.
Cases were okay too.
First was about a market entry of a rental-car company in the rental-car market of UAE. So find the market size (in terms of cars)
Second was about a water bottle shop and it s P&L Statement. Quite easy infact. (or so l thought!)
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What were your challenges in your previous internship. (difficult to say negative things or your weak points!)
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
