PA Consulting Grad Scheme

I know this is an old thread, but is anyone else waiting on assessment centre results.

Wait when did you do your AC and what programme did you apply for? I got an email today saying they’re still shortlisting people for February

on Tuesday, and Strategy wbu?

I was told by HR either Tue or Wed

Hi guys,
I applied for the graduate research consultant at PA Consulting and had my assessment centre last week.
I was wondering if anyone who works there or received an offer can given me an idea of:
a) the salary for a graduate research consultant (in human insight team)
b) willing to share their experience as a graduate research consultant
They have said that they cannot share any salary information unless you receive an offer, which is fair enough, but it's still a lot of time to put into an application that I could end up rejecting if it's below my pay grade, so would just be nice to have an idea! Glassdoor seems to suggest it's between £31K and £33K but my last job was £38K so wondering what the flex is in that. I have two years work experience and a masters in quantitative research.

can anyone tell me please what the assessment centre was like? What type of activities/roles did you do. Or in general what was the application process?

hello! have u applied? may i ask what role and what stage you are at?

Hello, I have applied to the Graduate Research and Insights Consultant role. I am currently at the games-based assessment stage

ahh ok. i applied to the digital software role. is this the first games based assessment u have received? i assume its the artic shores one right? which games did u play?

Hi, yes this is the first games assessment that I have received (Arctic Shores) is there more game based assessment? I played the ticket, arrows and emotion games

if the ticket one is even/odd and round/sharp shape one, then yes i also played these aswell! i then received another email a week after saying i passed, and then they gave me ANOTHER artic shores assessment 😭😭😭 (i hate artic shores assessments). the email just says "inductive reasoning". i'll probably do it tomorrow.

Hiya, yes it is that one. Are you serious?? I thought it'd be assessment centre stage that's so annoying, good luck!!

fr 😭. even worse that the stages for the application process arent listed anywhere. thank you! when i do them i'll let u know what games it was
