Question 1
IBM looks for passionate, original thinkers who want to drive progress, grow their network, and further their careers. Tell us about a situation which suggests you matched this trait.
Assume you're the managing director at an international airport. Your airport has received multiple bad reviews because of flight delays and customers not having the access to a complaint cell. How can you address and solve the issue?
You have experience and are working in federal public service which is known to be slow-paced. IBM provides a rather fast-paced environment. How do you know you can fit in?
Very thorough and there was case study presentation. They look at more than what you know, they do pay attention on your personality and if you have valuable characteristics as a consultant.
