Yes. For me it was phone screening and then two in person rounds. I was applying from outside consulting, not sure if it makes a difference of someone is coming from a different firm.

Same process for anyone joining at associate level, whether experienced or campus hire. Can't talk about EM and above, I am unaware of those processes

Phone Case with McK Alum (30 minutes), 1st Round (2-3 Cases + Behavioral), Final Round (2 Cases + Behavioral). No PST for experienced hires (or whatever it’s called now).

Same for applicants in all industries (e.g., consulting, IB, S&T, corporate strategy).

Hello,

Currently, in accenture. I have had very bad billable hours and not much achievement this fiscal year. I am worried of getting fired, so i applied for another job. Got offered may be 5% above my current pay with 5k bonus, but in lower level at Deloitte. I think working lower level will give me more opportunities to learn as i think i have lot to learn. I made decision based on my gut and accepted the offer. I have not talked to anyone on accenture side yet. What you think?

Industry imposter here…How do you show progression on your resume when your internal levels changed, but the title doesn’t indicate a promotion to the rest of the workforce. (e.g. a senior product manger to a technology strategist)…It seems like a lateral move unless you were internal and knew it was a level 7 to level 8.
