      Associate Consultant Interview

      24 Mar 2014
      Anonymous interview candidate
      London, England
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Capco (London, England) in Mar 2014

      Interview

      So the first part of the process is an online application with a short video interview basic questions; how would you describe yourself? what changes do you see happening in Banking in the next few years? Second part is an assessment day: Fairly standard people split in groups then process is as follows; 1. Quick fire interview rounds, questions aren't aimed to catch you out more so to see how you react and answer in pressure situations. Questions vary from why would you be a good consultant to what is a recent book you have read and how was it. the hard questions are; why shouldn't we hire you? what big changes do see happening in the financial services industry? why would you be a good consultant? best to stay relaxed in this situation it is more of a way for them to gauge the type of person you are and how confident you are in having a conversation etc. 2. there is then a short aptitude test mix of maths, logical thinking and verbal fairly straight-forward you won't need a calculator for the maths and the verbal is more so you looking for mistakes in a document so attention to key details spelling mistakes etc. 3. Group case study - they split you in groups at the start then that is the group you do a mini presentation with again this is a focus on how you work in a team, communicate and understand a document also they are looking to see how you can articulate as well. for the most part they want you to be yourself there is plenty of opportunity to talk to other employees without feeling like it's part of the process it's quite informal with them and they want to give you as much information as possible. Advice: Stay calm, relaxed and ask questions when given the opportunity. Also in group exercises look to communicate and add input do not just sit and listen and let others take over. Third stage: Longer interview process with three different people one of whom is a partner - Here there is a greater focus on your CV your past experiences and challenges you have over come etc. asked a lot of questions as to why Capco and why consultancy? but also be prepared to have an understanding of current issues and changes in financial services as there are questions asked on this and what do you think the scope for the future is etc? lots of competency questions like a time you were challenged? a time you failed? etc Finally last part of the process is a written document they want you to write a response to two questions a basic check of your structured writing, spelling and punctuation.

      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Capco (London, England) in May 2026

      Interview

      The recruitment process felt genuinely well thought out compared to other firms I interviewed with. The initial video interview involved four experience-based questions and one case study style question which gave a real taste of what the role involves. From there, the in-person assessment centre was intense but energising. You are in a group of up to nine candidates with senior consultants observing throughout, working through a real FS case study and an individual task. The people I met were engaged and clearly invested in finding the right fit rather than just ticking boxes. Dan in recruitment was brilliant throughout and kept me informed at every stage

      Question 1

      In the individual task, I was given four emails from different stakeholders and asked to prioritise them in order of priority and urgency.

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Capco (London, England)

      Interview

      I applied for data consulting role. Overall smooth interview process. There was one SJT type online assessment, one technical case study which was presented to a senior/principal consulting, and the final interview was with a principal/managing principal consultant. Overall pretty generic process.
