I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Protiviti in Sept 2024
Interview
The case interview was surprisingly relaxed, which helped ease any nerves I had going in. The interviewers were incredibly supportive and guided me through each step of the process, which made it feel more like a collaborative problem-solving session than a high-pressure assessment. They even sent me a model beforehand to help me prepare, which gave me a solid understanding of what they were looking for. Having that kind of insight really allowed me to focus on demonstrating my thought process and approach, rather than worrying too much about getting the 'right' answer. Overall, the whole experience was much more comfortable and constructive than I expected.

Tell us about a time when you faced a challenging problem at work or in a project. How did you approach solving it, and what was the outcome?
I applied online. I interviewed at Protiviti (Minneapolis, MN)
Interview
Quick 20 min phone call with recruiter. They ask you behavioral questions and your background. Wasn't too bad felt more like a conversation but they are very picky when it comes to second round in terms of your background really needing to fit the role to a T.
Simple behavioral and case interview. One of the most supportive interview environments I've been in and really appreciated it. Behavioral was very standard and case is given before hand. Case was pretty simple, a diagram that you have to analyze and you get a day to think about it. Not too much stress testing, overall pretty good experience.
Great experience! The employees were truly amazing—welcoming and knowledgeable. The interview had two parts: the first half focused on behavioral questions, while the second half involved analyzing and solving a case study.
