I applied through college or university. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Kearney (Montreal, QC) in Oct 2019
Interview
4 Rounds of interviews with managers, directors, and partners. The interviews are all the same structure, fit + case. My case was a rather peculiar one and something I had not practiced before. It involved both internal and external strategies following a decline in profits (which turned out to be a decline in profit margin, not profits) which subsequently led to the firing of the CEO.
The feedback I was offered was not really helpful as the interviewer said I should have provided more recommendations aside to the reversal in price (which was the reason for the decrease in profit margins and the CEO's termination). He said I barely did not make the cut, which does not help considering it was a first round interview.
