Hi there,
I would first ask the recruiter what the exact format of the interview will be.
Often, for Platinion, they would have the regular interview with general cases (i.e., focusing on analysing your skills not knowledge, and the cases could be from any industry) + a technical interview (which is focused on testing your technical knowledge through either an ERP-focused case or through direct questions). On top of this comes the personal fit component, which once again, might require you to draw on stories from your ERP experience.
In short, you need to find out how exactly the interview will be structured and that's going to give you a clear idea of what to focus on. You can of course also come back here and repost your answer and I'm happy to provide a more tailored suggestion.
Best,
Cristian
Hi there,
Just ask the recruiter — they’ll always have the most accurate and up-to-date info about your interview setup.
That said, here’s the general rule: if you’re applying for a specialist or tech-focused role, expect a mix. Usually:
Even if the topic is tech-heavy, the interviewer will still expect structured thinking, clear communication, and problem-solving under pressure — just like in any consulting interview.
