Mercer Consultant interview experience

No offer

Medium

Negative

London, EnglandPosted Sep 2025 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

I interviewed for the Consultant role in an average-difficulty process that started professional, but I left with a strong negative impression due to rescheduling and follow-up.

Virtual call with hiring manager — we reviewed my CV and talked through my background.
Pre-interview tasks — I was asked to complete a set of tasks before the second interview.
Second interview + redo — after the interview, I had to redo the presentation task.
Last-minute disruption — my follow-up interview was cancelled hours to spare, with no reassuring explanation.
Outcome: I didn’t get the offer; the main takeaway was that operational handling felt unprofessional and undermined confidence in the team.
