Hey guys. I have been applying to Amex for the past 1 year. Tried applying on the portal, through referrals and even hr consultants reached me regarding the roles since I have a relevant profile. But not once have I been shortlisted or called for an interview. What could be the problem?
PS: I have gotten calls from every other company for the same profile but not amex. Can't be a problem with the profile. Seems something dicey which I'm not aware of.American Express
How is the work life balance in Citi?
Here is the scenario: Have 2 offers from IT MNCs and 1 from Citi. Citi's offer is the highest. Almost 5 lakhs diff in the fixed component. Although money is important, but I am also seeking a little balance with life. I was previously in ZS Associates and to be frank, life was hell. I am not looking to relive that phase again.
What are the daily actual working hours?
Shall I join Citi or let go it for a lower package offer?
Seeking honest advice here.

Depends on how your mind works. McK cases are interviewer led, so if you prefer broader scope cases, then you'd need to practice McK-style ones where there's a fixed direction in which you're supposed to go. Our "behavioral" interview or PEI is a little different from most. You only speak about one particular story as opposed to a series of questions for this. So prepare properly for which one you're gonna use because the follow-up questions they ask are super detailed. Good luck!
BCG cases probably have higher requirements for structured thinking and using a hypothesis/well thought out framework to guide the direction you’re going, but from my experience tend to have easier math. Also BCG behaviors are quite straightforward!
