very different. these interviews often jump into probability, finance theory (efficient markets, etc), econ theory (antitrust), and mathematical problem solving. not all of them are like that, though, as some are more fit based.
Varies by firm. What company are we talking about?
Any insight on Berkeley Research Group case interview? Thank you so much.
Be able to discuss the concepts of antitrust and monopolization, microeconomic theory and to a lesser extent macroeconomic trends, statistics and econometrics.
PM me with the firm and more background if you'd like more detail.
Hi thank you for your suggestions. Can I discuss with you about my upcoming interview with an economic consulting firm?
Thanks guys, I'm not sure whether you've heard about this firm. Brattle Group.
does anyone know about NERA?
I would say the main difference is nobody is looking for you to get creative. There is a right answer and he or she is trying to see if you get it and how you get there. Err on the side of talking less if you have a habit of rambling when you're nervous. Saying something that goes against basic economic theory is a pretty big ding, especially if they are already on the fence about you.
It also varies by practice group. If it's finance you'll obviously get questions about efficient markets, portfolio theory, etc; for antitrust you can expect industrial organization questions.
