Consultant Marriage Question:

Download Questions PDF

These are the standard questions that almost every professional in any walk of life will have to negotiate successfully if they're to find themselves getting a job offer. However, just because they're not specific to the consulting industry doesn't mean that you should take them lightly-tripping up on a question about your long-term career goals can do your application just as much harm as blowing the case interview portion. Some examples:

► "Please describe your most important leadership experience and the impact that you had as a leader."
► "Describe a problem that you would like to tackle at [this firm], why and how would you pursue it."
► "If I were to speak to your colleagues from your most recent internship (or friends in school), what would they say about you? What are the strengths and weaknesses they would share?"
► "Describe a situation where you failed. What did you learn about yourself and how did you change as a result?"
► "Why our firm instead of your current firm? What do you know about us compared to your firm?"
► "Tell me about a project that didn't go well and why and what you would do differently next time?"
► "How do you quantify a lead?"
► "Can you describe your brand?"
► "How have you dealt with low team morale in the past? Provide an example of when you had to give a bad performance review."
► "Describe a project which challenged you. Describe a client relationship which was challenging."
