Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Roland Berger.
Project Manager
I had a few interviews, one was focused on Sustainability. The recruiter was really nice and helpful. In total, there were 3 chats: first with HR, then one with a Senior Manager involving a Case Study, and finally, a third chat with a Director who asked detailed questions about his projects. Ultimately, it didn't work out with the Director.
- Tell me a brain teaser.
- Suppose a client aims to cut emissions by 30% in five years. What details would you need, and how would you begin addressing this?
Project Manager
We had four interviews in total. Three were with Partners and one was with a Principal. Each interview focused on personal fit and included a case study. The process went really smoothly because I felt a good connection with the interviewers. It was helpful to research the company beforehand, ideally by talking to other consultants from the same platform.
- Can you share an instance where you experienced failure?
- Describe the most impressive thing you have accomplished.
Senior Project Manager
The recruiter's interview was sub-par. Most interviewers seemed unprepared and asked irrelevant questions that didn't test any skills. The recruiter also went incommunicado after the process concluded.
- Could you walk us through some case studies?
- Tell me about a time when you faced a challenging situation and how you handled it.
- Here's a geometry problem for you.
