Economic Consulting Superday -- Anyone Have Some Tips?
Not trying to rehash a subject, but I found that many of the responses to this topic were pretty old. I know a lot of other kids are hearing back about super days this time of year and I was hoping to gain some insight into the technicals that are likely to be asked at a economic consulting super day. Is case in point the right place to start? Should I bring out the micro economics textbook? Thanks a ton.
SuperDay at Economic Consulting Practice (Originally Posted: 02/20/2014)
I have a superday for an economics practice. Anyone have experience with econ consulting superdays ? What kind of questions do they ask/how long is it usually?
Thanks

No insight, but interested to here how it goes. Good luck!
Thanks! I'll try to remember to give you an update.
Is this for FT or SA?
SA
I just had one with Analysis Group in Boston. I was grilled on several econometric projects that I undertook while an undergrad so make sure you know them inside and out, i.e. what data you used, where you got it, how you cleaned it, the economic theory underlying the model, the actual econometric model you used and why, etc.
Probably a good idea to look over some brain teasers and practice cases as well.
I had essentially only questions about my current internship, which is a quantitative one. No difficult questions whatsoever. Nice people. How did you like AG?
Final Round FT Econ consulting Firm Help! (Originally Posted: 02/01/2013)
Hi, I recently just got into 2nd round FT recruit at a firm and they told me to decide whether to come next week, or the week after. Does the time matter alot in FT recruiting? Like should I try to go as soon as possible as there is a chance that they are interviewing some other people and if they move fast they get the job before I do?
I asked them, the HR, and they say I shouldn't worry about that and can go whenever I want in those weeks. I am just afraid that by the time I get there, some one else already has taken up the position even though they are still interviewing me.
Thank you so much. I really appreciate it.
No it doesn't matter. Often they'll do two "superdays" of final rd. interviews and no decisions will be made until after the last one. Usually it's pretty obvious which candidates are the strongest from each day, so if you're one of those you'll be part of the discussion after the interviews wrap up.
Because you know for some banks and consulting firms they usually decide right away after the interview, not wait for several interviews and then decide. Moreover, they say I can come whenever in those two weeks so I feel like it's not a Superday in which several candidates come at the same time but maybe just one or two? Anyone has any other input? Thanks a lot,
