Whiteshield Video interview

Question

Hey guys,

How would you prep and what would you focus on for a Whiteshield screening/ video interview. It’s 20 minutes and 5 questions.

Answer 1

To my understanding, Whiteshield is relatively niche so probably the only coaches who can give you a good answer here are those who specialize in the UAE market. I'd suggesting contacting one of them.

However, there are some general points to be ready to discuss in any video interview, especially one focused on fit.

Be ready to talk about your academic background and why consulting / Whiteshield
Be ready to demonstrate instances of personal leadership (i.e., example of when you led a team, or were a catalyst for change, or showed strong interpersonal skills to resolve conflict, etc - ChatGPT can give you a bunch of these questions)
Be ready to receive some questions about Whiteshield itself - make sure to have read about the company in depth, including a couple of newer pieces of research they've put out

But as I said before - these are quite generalized, and you'd be better off speaking to a UAE expert.

Answer 2

Hi there,

If you're confused about the scope of the discussion, it's best not to guess it. Instead, reach out quickly to the recruiter and ask them directly. This will save you a lot of time and might make the difference between preparing for the right thing or not.

Best,
Cristian
