Final round interview in the office with MD at Accenture. Should I expect any curveballs or should it be pretty straight forward?

Mine was the easiest part of the whole interview process. It's more just to see that you're a functioning human being who can carry a conversation. I was an experienced hire.

Straight forward. They likely have a project sold and need you.

@ACN1 what makes you say that?

MD interview is the confirming interview. They just have a general convo. Case for analyst consultant at least. What level are you coming in as ?

Coming in as consultant, haven't had any cases in the previous rounds

What practice at ACN

Federal IT Strategy

...wait, you haven't had cases yet? That's weird. I did prior to the MD interview.

How long did it take for a recruiter to reach out?

I had a referral so the following day after I submitted

What's your feel so far? And when did u apply?
