1. This is really dependent on the function and role. Generally speaking at most consultancies, there is a framework used to evaluate the role and you will be asked questions that relate to those dimensions (just as an example, my assistant at McKinsey was around communication, problem solving and admin management)

2. 401k contribution is not negotiable although there will often be a difference between consultants and non-consultants

3. I'm surprised you wouldn't get a prorated bonus for your current firm but if they really like you then I am sure the firm will try to compensate with a (partial) lump sum sign on bonus

Good luck!

1. The field on non-consulting roles is very broad, so beyond the typical interview questions, you might have to expect role-specific content questions, but that depends fully on the actual role you're applying for.
2. You mean a performance-based bonus? I don't think that is negotiable, as this will be pre-defined ranges for each position and is the same for everyone with the same position. Within the range it depends on your performance.
3. Check if you get a pro-rated bonus at your current firm. In most companies that is the case. On top, you can always try to negotiate a sign-on bonus. Especially if you're explaining that youre foregoing a bonus (so have opportunity costs), you might get away with it.

Hi, are you applying for a non-consulting role in a consulting firm or in some corporate?

Regarding your end of year bonus, that's something you could raise in negotiations as I would expect you could get the new firm to offer a sign-on to compensate you for the lost full year bonus in your last firm. This is fairly common

Hi there,

1) standard interview questions, some fit questions, + your expertise.

2) I don't think it's negotiable.

3) do prorated bonuses exist in your current firm? Signing bonuses is a thing you can definitely discuss. No harm in asking.

Good luck with your interview!

Hi,

Could you please specify the company? Otherwise, it's hard to give you the relevant answer

Hello!

Given that the tags BCG and McKinsey are in the question, I understand that you are interviewing for a non-consulting position in a consulting firm (plz correct me if I am not right).

1. Depends, are you already hired?
2. In consulting, usually salaries are pretty well defined and there is not much margin for negotiation
3. I think the easier thing to negotiate here is the entry date, so you can stay long enauhg in your old company to be paid that bonus

Hope it helps!

Cheers,

Clara
