I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at BearingPoint (London, England) in Dec 2011
Interview
Send a covering letter and CV to head of recruitment. Initial telephone interview on my background, reasons for wanting to be a consultant, my understanding of the job role etc.
Assessment centre- Short speech/ presentation on a personal topic. Group exercise for a case study of a company in need of consulting help. Written exercise- some maths, some grammatical. Case study interview with 2 managers.
Then some people got through to partner interview
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Partner interview was incredibly relaxed/ informal. General chat about things going on with the business and with you (the interviewee)
