Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Booz & Company.
Analyst
The interview was for an analyst in the Middle East Region. There were 3 interviews in total, each conducted by a different Booz team member. Each interview featured a case study question. These cases weren't rigidly structured but were personally chosen and presented in the interviewer's unique style. For instance, one interviewer posed estimation questions like 'what is the world's combined GDP?'. Another interviewer used a map of a country's oil infrastructure and asked industry-related questions. Generally, the cases were simpler and less quantitative than those at McKinsey.
- Considering you haven't experienced an actual engineering job, what's your rationale for pursuing management consulting instead of engineering?
Analyst
The process involves two rounds of interviews at the office. Each round had two interviews, and each interview was about 30-45 minutes. The interview questions were mainly one or two case study questions where a problem was given. The questions required an approach to solving the problem and also some simple arithmetic to be performed on scratch paper or in your head. The interviewers were helpful, offering insight and/or leading thought as far as developing an approach to solving the case study problems given.
- Estimate the optimal amount of cash for an ATM located in a busy mall, considering factors like maximum withdrawal limits, hourly withdrawal rates, and peak usage times.
Analyst
It was one fit question (like tell me about yourself or why you want to work in consulting) then a case. They actually only had one round of interviews instead of the usual two. I got a call later that evening with the offer.
- Tell me about yourself and why you want to work in consulting.
- What is your motivation for pursuing a career in consulting, and specifically with Booz Allen Hamilton?
