Interview
Your interview day
Once you complete your assessments you may be invited onsite for interviews. When you come on-site, you will meet with different people including future colleagues and/or the hiring manager. During an interview day, we use a mix of interview methods to get an accurate assessment of your skills and experiences. We’ll learn about your interests and give you an opportunity to learn more about the job and our organization.
Behavioral Interview
Behavioral Interviews give you the opportunity to share detailed information about how you’ve performed in previous work-related situations. We'll ask you to share examples of specific situations that you've encountered and dealt with in the past. Most interviews are scheduled for one hour and may include up to four questions.
Your interviewer will be interested in specific situations and the actions you took to address them. When responding to Behavioral Interview questions it will be helpful to follow a SITUATION, ACTION and RESULT approach.
Situation: Describe the situation or the task that you faced. Be sure to describe a specific event or situation, not a generalized description of what you have done in the past. We are looking for a situation that is relevant to the question being asked. Work experience from your current or previous job, school project, volunteer activity or anything relevant may be used. Try to think of situations in which you were highly involved and your actions had an impact. The interviewer may ask additional questions to get more detail.
Action: Describe the action(s) you took and focus on the steps within this. Even if you are describing a group or team project, talk about what YOU did and not what your team did.
Results: What was the result? Be prepared to talk about the outcomes of your steps and the impact they had on the situation, whether resolved successfully or not.
SAMPLE QUESTION AND RESPONSE:
Tell me about a time when you worked on a project with someone who was not doing his or her share of the work needed for the project to be successful.
Situation:
• What was the nature of your relationship with the person (ex. manager, coworker, etc.)?
• What was the task at hand?
• What made you believe that this person was not carrying his/her weight? When did this become apparent?
• What problems did the situation create for you?
Action:
• Talk about what you did – what were the steps within the action?
• What did you do to address the situation?
• Who, if anyone, did you talk to about it? What was their response and how did you react to it?
Results:
• Was the situation resolved?
• How did the event end?
• What did you accomplish?
• What did you learn from the experience?
Interview tips:
Reflect on your past successes and challenges and the specific steps you took to address them. Consider how you respond to different challenges such as opportunities to grow a business, personal conflicts and competing deadlines. Be honest in your responses; we are looking for specific answers that help us understand the behaviors you exhibited.

Interview
The interview can be broken in two categories... Case Interview and Behavioral Interview.
Case interview primarily checks your ability to interpret the data for example if you will be able to see if the company making profit for loss, percentage , graphical representation of data. Simple maths but I would suggest you should revise the formula's for Profit/ Loss and Break Even Analysis,
Behavioral Interview - that's easy, you have to talk about instances that may have come up in your career or you should be smart enough to make one and speak just like Extempore.
