Behavioral Technical
The interview process was online and pretty straightforward. I felt like the questions were average, and overall it seemed okay. There were no technical questions, and I didn't really need to prepare anything.

Behavioral Case
Found the job on my school's careers page and applied. The first interview was on campus with a couple of current business analysts. They asked mostly behavioral questions and then a case study question. It was pretty straightforward. Then I had a second interview, an on-site at their Boston office. This one had more behavioral questions, with a more senior person, and then a case study where I had to ask the right questions to get more data to find a solution. Overall, it was a pretty good experience, and people were mostly friendly.

Behavioral Case
It was a 30-minute phone call that was half behavioral and half case. They first asked me why I was interested in management consulting, and then specifically why I was interested in EIU Canback. They also asked what other companies I was considering. Then they asked what I knew about EIU Canback and why I thought I would be a good fit. The interviewer wanted to confirm I understood consulting and was ready to jump right in. After that, there was a general case question, which wasn't too difficult, and the interviewer was nice.
