I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Accenture (Londres, Angleterre) in Feb 2014
Interview
Consisted of a first stage interview with a capital markets manager. Went through the why questions. Why Accenture? Why Consulting? etc..
2nd stage was a HR interview which were typical behavioural questions and salary expectations.
Final stage case study and behavioural questions with an MD.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What is the single biggest challenge in your role?
Process involved three stages. An initial online application, a phone interview, and an assessment center. The phone interview was quite relaxed, with a straight-forward case study and no tricky questions. Be prepared to answer common questions such as 'Why Accenture?' 'Why consulting?'. The assessment was a bit more stressful. You are required to read through a lot of material in a very short time and support your final conclusions. Make sure you don't waste time on unimportant information. There is no right or wrong answer, just have an argument support your statement.

Question 1
We had to come up with a timeline for a project. On presenting my proposed schedule, the interviewer asked me how I could mitigate the risks of the project needing more time.
