Slalom fish, I have an informational interview Wednesday. Excited to learn more about the company. Any idea what to expect in an initial role discussion besides the usual (Tell us about your experience, resume walk through, etc?).

I had an initial screen with the HR and they had basic questions
1) Walk me through your resume
2) How does your skill set align to the job
3) Why are you planning to leave your firm
4) Why Slalom
5) Basic idea of my comp expectation etc

Good to hear. Thank you for the insight.

I’m waiting for a rescheduled case study. Behavioral included deep dives into my resume and why I did certain things on a given engagement. I was able to ask a lot of questions about Slalom, the local office, and the practice. Very positive experience so far.

- tell me about yourself
- expected compensation

This was definitely accurate so far. The "tell us about your experience" was very open-ended, so I'm glad I had warning to develop the right length of response.

I think you have to tag Slalom in order for Slalom fishes to get a notification. I’m currently interviewing there for a consultant role. I like them.

No idea how to tag

If you edit your post, you should see this. It’ll add an @. Type Slalom and it should pop up.

I don't have an edit function. Is that for iPhones only?

Typical tell me about a time questions about interactions with clients, managing workload, etc.!
