Kearney PEMA Analyst Interview Advice?

Hi WSO,

I just got an invite to interview for Kearney's PEMA analyst position. Does anyone have insights into the Kearney first and final round analyst interviews for the role? I'm curious about the:

- Difficulty of the cases

- Content in the cases (if they're only M&A cases and if there are any industries I should get myself accustomed to)

Also, any other advice and insights outside of this would be appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

Management Consulting 7 Stories Review

“Daniel was incredibly kind, patient, and helpful in preparing my “Tell Me About Yourself” answer and seven interview stories. He went through my answers in great detail, providing constructive feedback and explaining everything very clearly. He always made sure I understood his suggestions before moving on. What I appreciated most was how he offered fresh perspectives and helped me better understand what interviewers are actually looking for. I gained so much from the session and really appreciated his guidance!”

Management Consulting Mock Interview

“Ashley’s industry expertise and depth of knowledge in product strategy are immediately clear. In every session, she breaks down complex management frameworks into easily digestible insights. Her communication style is direct, clear, and empathetic. Rather than giving vague or generic career advice, she provides highly actionable takeaways—including specific templates for stakeholder communications, prioritization frameworks, and real-world examples from her own leadership background that I was able to implement directly into my team's workflow the very next day. Furthermore, her kind, patient, and approachable demeanor made it extremely comfortable to discuss tough workplace scenarios and honest skill gaps without fear of judgment.”
