Interview questions [1]

The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at OC&C Strategy Consultants (Boston, MA) in Nov 2024
Interview
First round was two 30 minute back to back case interviews with consultants. Both cases had a market sizing component and were relatively easy. Make sure you add the next steps for the fictional company at the end of your case interview. The second round was two 45-minute case interviews with partners. These were more relaxed and conversational but more challenging as you still had to structure the case study. The first round was interview-led; second round was interviewee-led.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at OC&C Strategy Consultants (London, England) in Feb 2019
Interview
Online tests, if successful you will then attend an assessment day. Two first round interviews with managers, if successful you will be recalled for Partner interviews.
