Consultant at Hitachi Consulting
Accepted Offer – Interviewed in Seattle, WA Nov 2010 – Reviewed Mar 22, 2012
Interview Details –
1st round campus interview with a Manager
If invited to next round, you are invited to their downtown seattle office (Convention center) for a full day interview session. This consists of 3 30 minute interviews, usually with a Senior Vice President, a director and a manager.
Interview Questions
- Tell me about yourself -- strengths, weaknesses, experience View Answer
- If you are technical, be ready to answer technical questions... Answer Question
Negotiation Details – I only had one offer so didn't have much leverage during negotiation. If you have multiple offers, use it to get a better deal. And don't fall for the "everybody calling you and telling you how important you will be to the team"... Consultants are notorious for this.
