Question 1
Normal HR questions. Case study based on a scenario in a specific industry.
Easy interview first round. On-campus interview asked a basic market sizing/profitability case. Nice interviewers.
Superday had an easy market sizing portion, easy behavioral. Standard consulting. Last case in superday was difficult, I believe it was profitability and market entry. Interviewers were willing to help you though.
Never got a response after my superday, company just totally ghosted. Would be nice to get a rejection email after doing 4 interviews but what can ya do. Liked the people but the general consensus among them seems to be that its a mid tier firm and most ppl leave after a few years. Those who stay get rewarded.
