About this interview
This is a late-stage conversation with a senior consulting leader for a graduate role. The interviewer is deciding whether clients and colleagues can trust your judgement, whether your motivation is grounded in the work and whether you respond maturely when challenged.
How to prepare
- Review the consulting work described for the programme and identify why it suits your strengths and goals.
- Prepare concise examples of ownership, feedback and working with demanding stakeholders.
- Follow current business developments and practise explaining why one matters to a client.
- Think through how you would protect evidence and quality when a client or senior colleague applies pressure.
- Prepare thoughtful questions about the work, learning and expectations of new graduates.
Common mistakes
- Giving polished claims about consulting without showing what the work involves.
- Treating the partner conversation as informal and losing structure in your answers.
- Offering confident opinions on business news without supporting reasoning.
- Blaming teammates or circumstances when discussing a setback.
