Frequently Asked Questions
Is one portion of the interview score weighted more than another?
No. All of the scores are equally valued out of a typical five point system. Each portion of the interview process is scored separately and does not carry more weight than any other part. When you proceed to the second round of interviews, remember that your score is back at zero, and everything you do now is looked at from a clean slate. This gives you the opportunity to take the feedback you were given and put it in to action. The interviewers need to see that you can take constructive criticism and immediately apply it.
If I get confused or lost during the interview what should I do?
There is nothing wrong with asking your interviewer to repeat themselves. In fact they'd prefer that you do ask them to clarify anything you don't fully understand. Although they cannot give you the answer, your interviewer will gladly repeat anything they said that you didn't understand and work with you to keep you on the right track.

Letter From The Author
Dear Aspiring Consultant,
Thank you for investing your time, confidence, and dedication to your future career. It shows that you have the ambition to never sell yourself short in life and have the willpower to thoroughly prepare yourself for your consultant interview.
When I as in your position, I remember not knowing whether consulting was 100% right for me, but what I did understand was that a consulting career is not only a strong career by a great stepping stone into other related fields. As it turned out, consulting was my niche and I am now privileged enough to be able to share all my hindsight—the good, the bad, and the embarrassing—with you!
Everything I wish someone would have told me is included in the seven very applicable chapters of this course. All of your anxieties and preconceptions about consulting interviews are dissected with such thorough examination, that you’ll be motivated, confident and ready to go conquer the consulting world. I hope you truly enjoy this course and find all of its informational tidbits relative, witty and of course helpful! Best of luck and wishes.
Sincerely,
Abhinav Agrawal
