I applied online. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at Oliver Wyman (London, England) in Oct 2021
Interview
Interviewed in 2019, very good experience. Two case interviews and two fit interviews, plus one panel interview. Relaxed atmosphere and we did laugh a lot during the interview. I would say the cases were not very standard market sizing stuff but a bit more creative, maybe designed to throw you off a bit. The interviewers would nudge me in the right direction if I was going astray.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
They asked me about some of my extra curriculars at uni
it was smooth but you need to work hard on your calculations skills, i failed in this part of the case because the calculator is not allowed and i had not familiarize myself with it before the interview but overall it was a good experience
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
tell me about yourself, why consulting and the case question
I applied online. I interviewed at Oliver Wyman (Milan) in May 2026
Interview
Pre-selection with one mini-case/brain teaser of 30 min. Overall, the case was testing both numerical reasoning and logics I would say. If you prepare the mini cases correctly you can pass.
Interviewers never attended on time. Rescheduled 7 times. Cases were easy relative to other firms. They dont take candidates very seriously so prepare for that. Personal questions include why OW?
