Me postulé a través de una agencia de empleos. El proceso tomó 3 semanas. Acudí a una entrevista en Strategy& (Londres, Inglaterra) en may 2021
Entrevista
1st stage was a 90min grilling with one of the Directors. This was 30mins of CV chatter and related questions, followed by 55mins of data interpretation.
Pretty laughable approach, the interviewer took himself very serious, and his frostiness almost led me to aboard half way through (he also rocked up in a hoody). I wouldnt want to work with someone like that.

Process was a mess; HR talked down to me in the interview and stated she didn’t want to “waste her time”. I empathize that HR hates her job but it was unprofessional to outright say it to a candidate, especially at a professional services firm where EQ is important.
HR informed me all 4 interviews are scheduled in a single day - and then when only one interview was scheduled, I followed up. Only then did she inform me there would only be one interview. HR has very poor communication skills and did not proactively communicate the change.
The interviewer however was great. Professional, friendly, and acted with class and respect.
