Background Check
Interview
Several consecutive interviews with Partners and Managers individually. Overall the interviews were very informal and everyone was very polite. There were very few technical questions or brain teasers. It seemed as though they just wanted to get a sense of my work ethic and to see how well I could carry myself in front of strangers. This was important since I am introduced almost weekly to new clients. Also, I regularly interact with C-suite officers that require a significant amount of professionalism.
Interview Questions
What do you think would be the most challenging part of this job for you personally?
The travel commitment was the most difficult aspect of the job for me because I had not traveled very much previously. Also, I was starting a family at the time of the interview
What do you want to get out of this position?
I had a difficult time answering this question at the time because I was fresh out of college and was still torn about whether to go straight to graduate school or start my professional experience.
