How tough is the interviewing process at Oliver Wyman, Dubai? It is for MBA entry role, pre-EM, I believe you call that Associate at OW. I used to blast case cracking and got offers from Bain (obviously) and A&M, but that was almost 5 years ago.
Pre-emptively answering question why would I make a move from Bain, I shifted from generalist to expert con after 3 years and don’t love my practice.

What do you not like about your practice?

No, most never do. Usually you’re invited for expert track around Con or M if you have accumulated significant project experience in one industry area.

Was wondering if anyone has thoughts on such roles or...is it a dead end approach.

So I get that in a corporate set up, you are supposed to be sharp and witty and think on your feet. Trouble is, I am extremely slow with comebacks. (Think Ross in Friends/Amy in B99) at the crunch moment, I generally end up not being able to give a good roast back. Unfortunately the best of them come to me like a few hours later (dinner/shower/TV) and I am left ruing and amazing opportunity to have gotten one back. I am awful at jibes and roasts.

Anyone else suffer from this?
