Hi everyone! I'm hoping to apply for Capco's Associate Consulting Programme next year and was wondering if anyone who has been through the assessment centre would be willing to share some advice. I've never done a consulting case study before, so I'd love to know what the group case study was like. Was it very financial services-focused? Was it more about teamwork and discussion, or did it involve calculations and data analysis? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Got offer and accepted but other firm that I applied ask for additional interview. Please advisd how to tell them "no" nicely ?

Done with 3 rounds of interview, HR discussion, Documents shared, but offer letter is still not received. Waiting from 10 days.
Anyone else had same experience?

Pros:

- fairly decent place to work (from someone who worked with the Vancouver and San Jose offices). never met a blue badger (permanent employee) who had awful things to say.

- Ashley Goodall (their SVP, Methods & Intelligence) co-authored a brilliant book on leadership and people management called “Nine Lies About Work” that makes me believe they can be an awesome place to work

Cons:

- red badgers had low morale since they’re contract workers and can be terminated at any time
