Round 1 - One-on-one 

(4 Questions)

  • Q1. "Tell me about your technical skills."
  • Ans. Knowledge of SQL, various ERP/accounting softwares (Dynamics, NetSuite, QuickBooks, etc), reporting platforms (Crystal, Hyperion, etc)
  • Answered Anonymously
  • Q2. Tell me about your budgeting and forecasting experience
  • Q3. Why do you want to be a consultant instead of a CFO?
  • Q4. What do you know about A&M?
Round 2 - Case Study 

90 uninterrupted minutes to prepare a 3 statement, 36 month forecast based on a set of assumptions that were provided. Interviewer was available, but off camera and generally not involved with the process. "Open the spreadsheet using this password, I'm here if you need me so just speak up (FYI, I tried 2x and he didn't respond...I'm sure they're very busy), you have 90 minutes. Go!" Straightforward but a significant amount of details to capture, so work fast. Was encouraged to "show off your Excel skills" by a previous interviewer.
