I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Oliver Wyman in Sep 2016
Interview
Online test, quite challenging. Make sure you do the practice questions. Negative marking so if you don't know the answer skip. Don't guess. Two interviews in the first round. CV interview. Very straightforward. They have your CV and cover letter so make sure you are fully aware of the contents of both. Ask questions too.
Case interview.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Really strange case interview question. Was asked 'How much money could you steal from a bank?'
Considering their reputation found it quite ironic.
it was smooth but you need to work hard on your calculations skills, i failed in this part of the case because the calculator is not allowed and i had not familiarize myself with it before the interview but overall it was a good experience

Question 1
tell me about yourself, why consulting and the case question
I applied online. I interviewed at Oliver Wyman (Milan) in May 2026
Interview
Pre-selection with one mini-case/brain teaser of 30 min. Overall, the case was testing both numerical reasoning and logics I would say. If you prepare the mini cases correctly you can pass.
Interviewers never attended on time. Rescheduled 7 times. Cases were easy relative to other firms. They dont take candidates very seriously so prepare for that. Personal questions include why OW?
