I'm aiming at getting into consulting positions (Consultant/Assossiate or Senior Associate level) in digital transformation and cloud solutions related areas, ideally speaking, but i don't mind other areas such as strategy or whatever as secondary choices.

Does it matter what type of case interview samples I get hands on? Do the case interviews in the interview process hinge on this distinction or are the questions more generic than not?

A lot of those questions would depend on your critical thinking. It will be a fictitious scenario, so you should be good if you can back your answers with some valuable facts. They know you don't have any consultant experience, so the best you can show them is your way of thinking and interacting with each other.

It would be difficult to get an SC position at Deloitte with no relevant experience because you would be expected to know how to lead consulting teams. We aren't set up great for expert type roles at the more junior levels (because there isn't a big need for expert people at that level). I think some of the MBBs are more suited for that honestly.

For the record: I don't have consulting experience but given that I'll finish my PhD soon, and the level of skills etc that I have acquired along the way, I was told by a senior consultant to shoot for positions ranging from Consultant/Assossiate to Senior Consultant, versus Intern or Analysts positions.

Is it really that difficult to get hired for a federal job? I was interviewed for a GS12 job but never heard back, they still didn’t hire anyone and I didn’t get a rejection. I applied for another GS07 job, was accepted, I took it, but I believe I can do better. I have a master’s and have extra graduate research experience. I am still applying to new jobs but I was told it is impossible to move up the grade level now. Everyone is telling me to stick with the government. What are your thoughts?

Hello,
I had an interview last week (25th Oct) with PWC UK, anyone have any idea when I am likely to find out the outcome. Cant find anything about it online, I am so impatient, I need to just try and forget about it, but I dont want to invest my time in applying for other roles either. I feel like everything is on pause at the moment. If anyone has any idea’s or knows of any delays etc I’d be grateful if you could share.
