I applied online. I interviewed at West Monroe (Chicago, IL) in Feb 2021
Interview
Initial phone screen with a technical recruiter, generally positive conversation and got me excited about the opportunity.
Second step was a 30 minute phone call with a manager who was completely checked out and going through the motions. Extremely difficult to give proper interview responses or get to know someone when they are hardly paying attention and very clearly reading off a script.
Received an email from the recruiter saying they were moving forward with other candidates.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Behavioral questions, tell me about your experience, strengths/weaknesses
First round was HireVue, then responded 2-3 weeks later inviting to final round. Final round had a case study, and 2 different behavioral interviews before the case study. Case study not impossible, but not easy.

Question 1
Walk me through your resume and how it fits the responsibilities of this position.
Three round - skills, behavioral, case. Very succinct and straight forward. No trick questions, reasonable interviewers who are friendly. Would recommend firm for new grads, seems like there’s hands on project experience
3 parts - behavioral, skills and case. each section is led by a different interviewer. case interview is the most difficult but seemed pretty straightforward. skills interview is only for technical practices - otherwise its essentially a second behavioral interview
