First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Opera Solutions.
Associate
The interview has 2 rounds. The first round is more of an HR round where they ask questions about your resume and about the airline industry, like its population types and problems. The second interview was a market sizing question about how many swipes happen in the NYC subway in a day, and the interviewer helps you with the answer.
- Can you tell me about yourself?
- What are the features/type of population in the airline industry?
- What are the problems in the airline industry?
Associate
The interview process started with two phone calls, each about 30 minutes. The first call involved a business case focused on reducing churn for an online dating platform, requiring some basic math and discussion on retention strategies and relevant data. The second call was a fit interview covering standard questions like motivations for consulting. About two weeks later, I had an in-person interview consisting of three 45-60 minute sessions. The first session included some fit questions and a short case on credit card fees and attrition. The second session was a supply chain case that was quite challenging due to unfamiliar terminology, and the interviewer's time constraints led to a rushed experience. The final session was primarily fit-based with a brainteaser included. I was notified about a month after the in-person interviews that I would not be receiving an offer.
- Supply chain case with confusing terminology
- Credit card attrition case
- Brainteaser
Senior Associate
Hiring for the Services side of the business mainly comes from annual on-campus interviews. Currently, on-campus hiring is more skewed towards lower levels, BA and Associates. At least two rounds of interviews, with 2-3 interviewers each round. Questions range from "Walk me through resume" to consulting style cases.
- Tell me about your experience, using your resume as a guide.
- Suppose a recent client of mine faced this specific challenge: [specific challenge]. How would you approach analyzing it, what solutions would you propose, and what would be the business rationale for those solutions?
