SydneyPosted Aug 2024 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

I interviewed for the Consultant role in a difficult, multi-stage flow that felt like a full assessment of both fit and real work simulation.

Hiring manager interview — a longer discussion (about an hour) about my fit for the role.
Team round — another hour with team members.
Final leadership interview — a final hour with a top-level leader.
Case study — a realistic assignment tied to the kind of project work handled by the role.
Outcome: I didn’t receive an offer; the takeaway is that the process was designed to test performance under realistic consulting expectations.
