Declined Offer – Interviewed in Paris (France) Sep 2011 – Reviewed Oct 14, 2011
Interview Details –
1st round:
1 multiple-choice test - no stress for that, even if you dont finish it, it s pretty easy
2 face-to-face interviews with fit questions + case studies - note that already at this stage people were not that welcoming and cases were pretty challenging
2nd round:
3 more face-to-face interviews & case studies - same level of difficulty as in the first round
Interview Question – France's favourite: client is a ticket restaurant company with declining profits, please advise. View Answer
Reason for Declining –
i didn't like the majoirty of the people I met
Everybody seemed so arrogant and unpleasant, that I accepted the offer from Bain, which is notorious to have a totally different culture
Other Details - I applied through an employee referral and the process took 1 week.
