      Software Developer Analyst Interview

      Anonymous interview candidate
      London, England
      No offer
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at PA Consulting (London, England) in Feb 2018

      Interview

      The interview process was organised and swift. I applied online and then was emailed about a phone interview approximately 10 days later. This lasted approximately 30 minutes, and at the end of the conversation I was told that I would definitely be invited to the next stage. The next day I was sent a link to a code test. Upon completion, I was emailed 2 days later with an invitation to the assessment centre which was in one week's time. The assessment day was very well organised, with good materials and tips provided beforehand, and split into three sections: case study, interview and group task. Usually, a final interview in required with a partner, but I was fortunate that I did my case study with the partner in question and so I managed to bypass this section. They rang me around two hours after I left the assessment centre and offered me the job there and then. Overall, a positive experience.

      Interview

      Application submitted; following by phone interview; The interviewer asked me a list of personality questions. Because it is a consulting company, some of the questions I did not expect and prepare. So I failed to give a good answer.
