I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Samsung Global Strategy Group (Seoul) in Apr 2026
Interview
Round 1: CV and Video Cover Letter - highly selective in this round, must have really good video cover letter
Round 2: Case + Behavioral + Mini Cases / behavioral (2.5-3hr, two sessions, very straightforward case and questions, you get a small break between the two sessions, while it is three interviews, two of them may be combined and delivered by one interviewer/group of interviewers)
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Given seven slides, how would you enter this new market if you were Samsung? What would be your first steps? Second steps? Do you think Samsung should enter the market?
45 min behavioral interview + 45 min case interview back to back, each with 2 interviewers. Largely focus on fit with the company and very similar to management consulting interview format.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Samsung Global Strategy Group (Chicago, IL) in Oct 2024
Interview
fit & behavioral test (mostly general behavioral, fit to Samsung fit to Korea), case interview (consulting style), presentation (bunch of slides and need to present based on prompt/key questions to solve).
