Question 1
why Kearney & why consultant?
If you were to pursue a career other than consulting, what would you do?
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Kearney (Düsseldorf) in May 2022
Interview
Das Vorstellungsgespräch verlief in 3 Interviews am Vormittag mit je 1h. Dabei wurden jeweils kurze Cases gelöst, welche aus dem tatsächlichen Alltag der Beratung stammten. Jede Runde wurde durch eine höhere Leitungsebene geführt.
Die Cases waren sinnvoll und wurden eher im Team gelöst und diskutiert. Es herrschte eine kollegiale Athmosphäre.

Question 1
Warum hast du immer schon davon geträumt bei Kearney zu arbeiten?
Case + behavioral interviews. The last round is with partners. Very standard industry process. Cases depend on the interviewers. Can be quite taxing with later rounds as there are back-to-back interviews.

Question 1
Standard behavioral questions when you describe what you did in a given situation. Cases are based on what the interviewers have worked on previously.
