Indian Consulting Interviews - My Experience With Ernst & Young

by Jaineel Aga

This chapter is a free excerpt from The Best Book on Getting Consulting Jobs In India.

The interview process for Ernst & Young included a brief case study: a mini-estimation followed by a business scenario. The case study was included to show the manager I could think out of the box.

The manager asked me a few questions about my background and why I wanted to get into consulting.  Then, he gave me a small business scenario, which dealt with corporate social responsibility (CSR).

The Ernst & Young interview wasn't as rigorous as some of the interviews we give to potential associates at Parthenon.

Pathenon has a very structured, rigorous, case interview process. The Ernst & Young interview focused on the following points:
  • Does the candidate make the fit?
  • Is he or she willing to put in the hours?
  • Can he or she work with another consultant in front of a client?
Sometimes you get lucky!
