Interview Preparation Tips

Round: HR Interview
Experience: The round was telephonic interview with the HR calling from the London office. At the beginning of the interview itself she told me she would want to ask me some competency questions as she had already seen my resume and didn't wanna ask questions about it. The HR was really nice and made the process extremely comfortable. It was strictly a 30 min round as she had already notified.
Tips: Just keep calm and listen to the questions clearly.

Round: Behavioural Interview
Experience: This round was divided in 3 parts and was conducted by 2 team leaders in the company. They made the flow of the conversation really smooth. 1st part was a CV based interview where i was asked about the various internships and projects i did and also about my curriculars. The interviewer navigated through my whole CV making sure that I could explain most of the points. The 2nd part was the competency based questions where she asked me about 10 odd questions where I had to explain what roles I would play in certain situation . It also involved talking about my mistakes or failures and how i overcame them. The 3rd part was a case study interview, the case given was about a investor who was planning to invest in a snack vending manufacturing unit which was loss making. I was asked my approach to the solution of whether or not we should advise him to invest. If yes what are the problems we would tackle. If No, reasons. I was also told to analyse the situation using various parameters such as the competition, industry and the customer view.
Tips: Try considering all the parameters while solving the case. Also for competency based interview, try coming up with an example in your recent past.

Skill Tips: Try going through consulting case studies
Skills: Confidence , Communication skills, Analytical skills , Structured thinking, Problem solving
College Name: KJ SOMAIYA INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT STUDIES AND RESEARCH

Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Resume Shortlist
Experience: There was an initial shortlisting based on pure resume evaluation.There was a freshlist along with a waitlist. I was lucky to get shortlisted on the freshlist.
Tips: Give time to prepare your resume. Take a look at the resumes of seniors.Also get their feedback and comments on your resume.A lot of finishing is required.Dont do any mistakes on your resume.List your best attributes and make it as powerful as possible.Dont get dismayed by other's achievements, make your shine as brightly as possible.

Round: Guesstimate Interview
Experience: My first round was a guesstimate round.The questions asked were pretty basic and I breezed through.The interview was partially stress interview as the interviewer wasn't paying much attention to me, but staring into her phone.
Apart from the two guesstimate interviews, I was given a basic case to solve.
However 'Tell me about yourself' was asked initially to break the ice.So be ready with the answer!
Tips: Dont get perturbed by lack of attention from the interviewer, they are just testing you.

Round: HR Interview
Experience: This was an HR round. The experience was positive.
Tips: Be thorough with your HR answers.Students tend to delay HR prep a lot, however this round is often the deal breaker.You have to be likeable! So give sufficient time to your HR prep for questions like: "Tell me about yourself","Strenghts and Weaknesses"," Why you" and "Why this firm". Tell me about yourself is a very important question, make the answer unique and powerful.

Round: Case Study Interview
Experience: The question was basic however the round was a stress round.The interviewer was grim throughout the process.I proceeded step by step through the solution. I gave him three options for entering Delhi, saying that if he was ready to adopt these steps, he could enter the market (I don't remember all, however one was entering the luxury segment like BMW, Audi etc)
After 15 minutes, the interviewer told me that I was wasting his time and that I hadnt come up with a feasible solution.I was a little taken aback but I confidently stated that he had to adopt the steps I had suggested to enter otherwise he culd give up the endeavour.I also said that I wont lie to him just to please him. He then said" How would you feel if I offered you the job right now?"
Elated I accepted the offer.

Tips: Dont be scared.Take your stand,If the interviewer says your solution is rubbish, defend your answer well.Chances are they are just stressing you out. Ask ample questions.They might act that you are wasting your time, but dont hurry up.try to extract as many details about the case as possible.
The interviewer also said that the job is very hectic and involved travelling and if I was up for the challenge.I beamed and enthusiastically said that I was.

General Tips: Practice a lot of cases and guesstimates.They are not very tough, however you need time to get comfortable. Also by the time of the interview, you must have practiced many of them so that the interview would feel vvery easy.
Skill Tips: Practice in groups of 3-4.Practice cases with a friend.
Skills: HR Skills, Case Analysis, Guesstimate Skills
College Name: IIT Delhi
Motivation: Wanted to get into consulting industry.
