I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Guidehouse (Washington, DC) in Jul 2021
Interview
Recruiter reached out to me because of my resume in database, originally was rejected. Took about 3 weeks to do. Initial 30 minute call with recruiter and then four 45 minute interviews with a senior consultant, 2 associate directors, and 1 director. The recruiter was in touch with me very frequently, about twice or three times a week. He got me an offer within 1 day of my last interview. Very professional and friendly people.
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
Tell me about an idea you had and how you implemented it
1R technical presentation + 1R behavioral
2R traditional casing interview + 2R behavioral
They give you a prompt for technical presentation prep a week before the interview. For 2R it's a traditional casing interview that gives you a case on the spot. 1R behavioral was with a director, 2R was with a partner at the firm.
Process very thorough but demanding. Left me on the hook between rounds and then I was treated like an “compliance interview” by the final round. Interviewer was extremely disinterested and seemed to already have their mind made up. The recruiters are disorganized. This place is a joke.
They were very professional and prompt, easy to coordinate and clear questions. The process made sense and I got plenty of time to ask questions of my own. I interviewed with two different people.
