Hey all, considering applying for a grad role in consulting after a year of big 4 assurance experience. Assessment day useful for these sorts of online tests?


yes, that's the one I am using.
Anyone know if you have to do all the tests (i.e Numerical, verbal, critical) or do they pick one for a certain role? Put my application in for consulting in the actuary service line in deloitte.

I don't know about actuarial, but I have to take an hour long assessment of these mixed for normal consulting. Oh and that game.

KPMG numerical and verbal are outrageous, so time pressured I dont think you're meant to finish and q hard content on top of that
Ive just applied to the Human Capital Consultancy graduate scheme. I've just submitted my application form so I guess it'll be a couple of days before I hear anything back.

Just wondered if anyone knew when would be too late to apply for the big4? do I need to be getting my applications in within the next couple of weeks for EY/KPMG?

Seems like Deloitte has already closed, but anyone know about the other three? - need to practice the tests!
Do any of the strategy arms of the big 4 do consulting internships (other than PWC i think)?

Yeah KPMG allows you to choose the strat group. Deloitte is general. EY-Parthenon has a summer programme.

Monitor Deloitte is still open I believe. Just apply asap to the big 4, preferably before the end of Sept.

A lot of consulting companies are now open and more will be throughout this month
Has the kpmg consulting/strategy internship closed already? All the others (tax,audit etc.) are there but I can't find management consulting or strategy.

It was Consulting -Deloitte Summer Vac Scheme 2017 - Consulting (so the 'standard' mgmt consulting one)

Do you know how we can prepare for group exercises?
Oh I see I've applied for a graduate role!

I haven't started researching anything yet about the assessment centre but I've had an internship this summer with the government and we did a practice assessment centre there where we practiced a group exercise so if it's anything like the one we did there you'll be given some literature to read on a topic so I was the environmental committee and another was commercial committee another was the community committee etc and you all have different
Objectives so you need
To show you can communicate well to communicate your personal objective but also meet a consensus showing team work so I imagine it'll be along the same lines where we'll each have a different project we have to brief about and we need to decide the best one as a group
