Interview process
There are three stages to the IAMCO interview process.
Stage one: telephone interview
Once we have received your application, we will carefully review your fit with IAMCO. Applicants that meet our criteria will be asked to participate in an initial telephone interview, part of which will be conducted in your primary foreign language.
The interview will give us an opportunity to discuss the following:
- Your academic background;
- Any professional experience you may have;
- Your interest in IAMCO;
- Any questions you have about the company, our people, and the work that we do.
If we still consider that you meet our needs, you will be invited to the first of two face-to-face interviews at our Birmingham offices.
Stage two: first face-to-face interview
Firstly, we will ask you to sit a short numeracy test. In addition to allowing us to assess your ability to work with numbers, the test will also provide you with some insight into the type of quantitative analysis you would perform as an Associate.
Following the numeracy test, there will be an interview lasting 45 minutes to an hour. This comprises four parts:
- A discussion about your career aspirations;
- A series of competency-based questions to explore the skills you would bring to the firm;
- Two short problem-solving exercises, based on real IAMCO consulting assignments;
- A second opportunity for you to ask questions.
Stage three: second face-to-face interview
If our initial meeting goes well, we will invite you back for the third and final round. This begins with a case study, where we ask you to synthesise extracts from an actual client report and present your findings in an informal role-play situation.
After the case study, there will be a brief, final interview, which will provide you with the opportunity to meet senior managers at IAMCO and to ask any remaining questions.
