Hi, Could you guys share some of your experiences on the final round interview with a partner at Roland Berger? How long did it take? What kind of questions were asked? For which CC did you apply?
Any help is highly appreciated!

Roland Berger Final Round

Hi Anonymous,
Roland Berger tends to ask more questions relating to sector or functional expertise (given that usually people need to apply to a certain practice at RB). Hence, the cases tend to be more technical and less conceptual, compared to McKinsey and BCG. However, you still need rigorous structuring and ability to hypothesize on the grounds of incomplete information.
That being said - in the final round, interviews can be much more freestyle, depending on what the Partner is interested in. Sometimes a full case is given, sometimes it is just a chat. Just be relaxed - if they liked you in Round 1, just continue on that path!
Cheers, Sidi
