I applied through college or university. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Protiviti (New York, NY) in Oct 2014
Interview
It was first on campus with a behavioral and a case study. Both were very laid back and enjoyable. the second round they flew me to NYC and it was an all day affair with interviews with 2 MD's who were very nice. One interview was more of just talking and building rapport, where as the other interview was very informative and ensured I understood what we were interviewing for and what exactly Protiviti did. There was also team building activities and a presentation in front of the interview class.
Standard behavior and case study interview. It was very conversational and informative on the company. The case study was not too difficult, I think they just want to see your train of thought and how you think.
HR interview screened a lot of ppl away. It is used to see how dedicated you are to the industry
Interesting case interview. Can be prepared well by asking AI to prepare case studies for you.
One-one interview with MD was more about knowing you as a person.
I applied through a staffing agency. I interviewed at Protiviti (Milan)
Interview
Contattato tramite una agenzia del lavoro, è stato fatto un primo colloquio con loro, poi un secondo colloquio conoscitivo con Protiviti.
Dopo aver passato entrambi, ci è stato erogato un mese di corsi (academy) che avevano un po' la funzione di colloquio tecnico (abbiamo dovuto fare dei progettini da presentare ai tecnici dell'azienda, ma eravamo accompagnati dai nostri insegnanti). Tutto molto tranquillo, nulla di difficile.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Colloquio conoscitivo: cos'è la consulenza direzionale, cosa pensi di protiviti e dei suoi valori.
Durante l'academy: presentazione di un progetto di gruppo fatto con altri ragazzi con il supporto dell'insegnante
