Hi Najla,
You should expect the following:
1. An online assement
2. First round case interviews
3. Second round case interviews
In terms of case types I honestly recommend you prepare for all case types (always best to be ready for anything and to learn how to be adaptable). However, if you are limited in time, make sure to focus on:
My recrutement process happened in Toronto at their Dubai office recruiting Super day:
1st round in the morning consists of 2 back-to-back traditional case interviews in a row with consultants and managers.
If passed, 2nd round consists of 2 back-to-back less formal case interviews with partners.
1st round was very technical and tricky. I remember one of my interviewer asking me brain teasers in the beginning like "I bought a 75 cl bottle of wine for $10,000. What is the price of grape?" or "what is the NPV of a chicken?". Cases were very standard for MENA region like market sizing plus calculation of payback period on a certain investment. Watch out, there is no place for math errors.
Partners cases weren't formal at all like "How would you carry $1M in a bag?" or "how would you estimate total blood volume in human body?". You should think out the box but think logic.
I passed both rounds. Decided to join another MBB, but OW is definitely is great firm fastly growing in the region. Hope it helps and good luck!
