Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Teneo.
Consultant
The interview was of moderate difficulty. It involved a case study focusing on the profitability of a railway franchise. There was no initial discussion of my CV. The interviewer provided immediate feedback on my performance. I was permitted to use a calculator during the case. The scenario presented was that a new rail operator needed help validating their bid for a train route, with plans to introduce a premium class. My task was to project the revenue.
- What are the key assumptions for this case study?
- What additional information would you need to complete this analysis?
Senior Consultant
The interview process was virtual due to Covid and had two or three interviewers with different levels of experience. These interviewers were likely people you'd work closely with. The first interview focused on your skills, interests, and abilities.
- Could you describe your responsibilities in your current position?
- What approach would you take to solve a problem?
Consultant
I had a couple of interviews with the firm. General CV questions without following a script was part of it. Also had market-sizing and data based interviews, the type where you are given information as opposed to you getting numbers off the top of your head. Unfortunately, one of the interviewers was drifting off . His eyes were closing and he seemed to be falling asleep. Unsurprisingly I got rejected. He probably had little recollection as to what happened. The consultants for market-sizing try to act like an unwelcoming client... Even after the interview is finished.
- Can you walk me through your background?
- Can you do a market-sizing question?
- Can you do a data-based question?
