Once invited to interviews, are candidates evaluated only on interview performance?

I’m wondering, once a candidate reaches the interview stage at consulting firms, are they evaluated purely based on interview performance, or do factors like past academic grades, achievements, and prior work experience still influence the final decision?

Hi there

Great question - if you're interviewing then all of those other elements have already been taken into account in the screening process.

Once interviewing, you're evaluated on that performance: technical, communications, presence etc. They may ask about the elements you mentioned in interview questions and evaluate your responses, but not the pure data - that was already considered.

 

Hope that helps!
