I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Oliver Wyman (New York, NY) in Dec 2015
Interview
Met at career fair and was invited to onsite interview in their NYC office for Oliver Wyman Labs. Had four back to back interviews: 2 case interviews, one data based, and one normal software engineering technical interview. Being new to case interviews I practiced around 10 beforehand and felt adequately prepared--but you can never get enough practice! Overall process wasn't bad but because it was such a long day (5+ hours) it felt pretty long. Atmosphere is typical, stuffy consulting atmosphere but the people seemed nice and enthusiastic about what they do. In the end they gave me a strange rejection saying that their current internship role wouldn't be a good fit for me.

Question 1
Given this sample dataset, what sorts of questions would you want to have answered?
The first part were two on-site same-day consecutive 45-minutes interviews with engagement managers, candidate-led cases with some behavioural questions as well. If selected to the second round, what followed was an online interview with a partner, mostly behavioural questions but also specific technical questions based on the feedback from the first round, in order to see if there was an improvement.

Question 1
How many passengers travelled through Paris airport (CDG) during the olympics?
First behavioral interview super annoying that it is 3 at once. Typical tell me about yourself and why oliver wyman. The interviewer seemed like already made up the decision and it was very uncomfortable to undergo the interview.
Did not recieve a callback.
There was an online assessment which tested mostly mental math and reading graphs. Then, there was a 30 minute case interview and a 30 minute behavioral. Fairly straightforward and standard, with the case being easier than average.
