Technical Case Behavioral
The interview process had 3 rounds: first was HR and a guesstimate question, the second was a case round, and the final one was with a partner. The guesstimate involved market sizing, and the case focused on profitability. The partner round was primarily based on my CV and questions about why I'm interested in consulting.

Behavioral Case Technical
I applied for the Shanghai office, and the interviews were from October to November 2016. I interviewed via mobile. The process included a pre-talk, followed by a 1st round, then a 2nd round, and finally interviews with a director and a partner. Everything was in Mandarin, with no English. LEK is usually quick with feedback.
