The beginning was her trying to get to know me, asked me what I was studying, I asked her about herself, then she told me the format for answering the following questions..
Question 1) What is your greatest achievement?
Question 2) Name a time you analyzed data.
She was very friendly, said she appreciated my unique responses, then offered me an in person interview a few days later.
First session was a screen interview with behavioral questions and background questions> Moving to the 2nd interview is a panel interview. The panel interview involves STAR questions as well as a sales role scenario.

Interview
Typical 3 round interview process.

-In person case study
-Group site visit.
Very general questions and the "case" is intuitive. Last round is basically when you already have the position. Study up on general interview questions and how to present a case.
Applied online. Phone interview for about 30-45 minutes, just basic getting to know you and asking about your resume and such. 2nd round is a sit down with 2 representatives presenting a business plan with role playing and asking you basic situational questions. 3rd round was an interaction in the daily lifestyle of an Intern.
