Behavioural interviews at A.T. Kearney

Hi,

I am surprised that there a whole 1h interview dedicated to fit ?! Can you precise what office you are applying for ?

In any case, you'll find below my advice for fit interviews including specifics of ATKearney.

- Build a personal narrative, detailing in a fluid way your own sotry. Avoid reading out loud your CV, since the interviewer already has it

- Be sincere. ATK's interviews guidelines have recently evolved to try to really meet who the candidat his, asking him to expose himself and be able to share his emotion. For instance you can be asked to tell a difficult situation, and then how you felt about it, why it was personnaly difficult and how you manage to solve i

- Stay humble. While really demanding with expectation on performane, the culture at ATK is mostly humility with brilliant people who really avoid any form of showing of. Fitting with this attitude is not that simple, it requires to find the right level of energy to be confident and dynamic without being arrogant.

Hope this helps

Don't hesitate to reach me for other questions.

Hello!

On top of the insights already shared in the post, the "Integrated FIT guide for MBB" has been recently published in PrepLounge´s shop (https://www.preplounge.com/en/shop/tests-2/integrated-fit-guide-for-mbb-34)

It provides an end-to-end preparation for all three MBB interviews, tackling each firms particularities and combining key concepts review and a hands-on methodology. Following the book, the candidate will prepare his/her stories by practicing with over 50 real questions and leveraging special frameworks and worksheets that guide step-by-step, developed by the author and her experience as a Master in Management professor and coach. Finally, as further guidance, the guide encompasses over 20 examples from real candidates.

Feel free to PM me for disccount codes, since we still have some left from the launch!

Hope you find it useful!

Best,

Clara

Just keep in mind that these questions is designed to check you on:

1. How would your react under the pressure

2. Whether your weaknesses are serious to your role

3. Whether you are aware of your weak parts and can work on to mitigate them

To answer this kind of questions, make a list of your mistakes you can remember, prepare a short story where you make this mistake, to give an idea that you are fully aware of it, and also add how you dealt in that situation and how you make sure to prevent it in the future.
