the first round was mostly behavioral questions. asked about past work experience. final round had general economics/econometrics concept questions. there was no case study during my interviews. all interviews were conducted over zoom

The interviews ran back to back. 2 case interviews followed by a bebavioural interview with a partner. The 2 cases included guestimation questions. One is life science, the other is not.

First round is a numerical reasoning test, drafting exercise and then difficult case study. You have 30 mins to look through a slide pack and then present to consultants. Final round they asked in depth about my masters thesis and previous experience.

Split in 2 rounds - one for half an hour with analysts, and the rest for 2-3 hours with people from different levels on the team. Behavioral overall and mostly questions about your resume.

Two rounds of in-person interviews in the London office: 1. Group interviews, made up of four rounds, testing competencies, problem-solving abilities, case study exercises. Mix of individual and group work 2. Three rounds of individual interviews

The first round was on campus for 30 minutes and included questions about statistics/regression. The second round was a super day in DC with multiple 2 on 1 interviews with senior staff and lunch with junior staff.

Group interview. multiple hours. We had it over zoom. about 5 people per group with one facilitator. quite hard to get points across due to other people, and not sound repetitive. you would have to pick a random number and that would give you an interview question, so that everyone had different ones.

I would like to say that the inverview process went smoothly and the interviewers were so nice. They did not give me a hard time, which makes a bit worried about.

The interviews consist of cases and behavioral questions. The industry of the cases will be given based on the background of the candidate. The interviewers are nice and talkative. There are usually 2 rounds of interviews for the summer internship position.
