Le processus a pris 2 mois. J'ai passé un entretien chez Oliver Wyman (Boston, MA) en janv. 2011
Entretien
Like everyone says, there is a skills test, 2 phone interviews and then an in-office interview. Helpful feedback is quickly provided by the interviewers. Very organized and pleasant process to go through compared to other firms. OW has a slightly different approach to case interviews than other firms, very focused on candidates ability to structure problem, not as concerned with the answer. Best for candidate to be very deliberate in framing answer, and not make too many assumptions without clarifying that you are making them first with interviewer. All in all a pleasant experience with a talented group of people.
Questions d'entretien [2]
Question 1
Decreasing market share case regarding a specialty running shoe manufacturer.
it was smooth but you need to work hard on your calculations skills, i failed in this part of the case because the calculator is not allowed and i had not familiarize myself with it before the interview but overall it was a good experience
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
tell me about yourself, why consulting and the case question
Interviewers never attended on time. Rescheduled 7 times. Cases were easy relative to other firms. They dont take candidates very seriously so prepare for that. Personal questions include why OW?
