Interview
After applying, recruiter will contact you in about a week's time. Standard interview questions (e.g. tell me about yourself, what are you strengths, what are you less excited to do in a job (aka what are your weaknesses), describe a situation in which you had to use data as a tool, etc. Interviewer was extremely friendly and let me know that if chosen, I would need to go through a 45 minute Excel test. However based on reviews I've read online, they're mainly looking for candidates who have experience with a consultation firm, since you will ask as an "in-house" consultant for all the teams
