Round 2 - Aptitude Test 

Tests are Pymetrics and an online case. Pymetrics is a personality test of sorts (risk aversion, pattern recognition, etc.) this was benchmarked against successful Consultants. Online case is multiple choice but the questions flow like a normal case interview. You will get a final round interview if you do really well on them. If you just ‘pass’, you have to have an internal designation of a high priority or very high priority candidate. (See advice)

Make sure you bring your energy to all of it. It determines how much support you get and how many interactions you have with senior leaders during the recruiting process to give you advice.
