Management Consultant

What you would do

• Assess AI-generated responses to strategy problems using your firm's analytical approaches and quality standards

• Provide detailed feedback identifying reasoning gaps, missed drivers, calculation errors, or weak recommendations
• Apply structured frameworks to evaluate how well the AI has decomposed and prioritized key business questions
• Collaborate with project leads to align evaluation criteria and refine feedback guidance as benchmarks evolve

Who they want

• 1+ years' experience at top consulting firms: BCG, Bain, McKinsey, LEK, Strategy&, Oliver Wyman, or equivalent
• Some experience must be within the past 7 years; postings note preference for trial-level or recent roles
• Undergraduate degree from a top-ranked university (as credential verification)
• Fluent written English; ability to produce clear, professional model answers and feedback
• Based in an English-speaking country; remote work asynchronous collaboration

Main skills

What the interview asks about

1. 1.Strategic problem decomposition

   Consulting hinges on breaking muddled problems into clear sub-questions; this tests your structured thinking.

   For example: “An AI is asked: 'A beverage company's profit margin fell 300 basis points in two years; what happened?' Describe how you would structure this problem and what you would evaluate in the AI's approach.”

2. 2.Framework application and critique

   This probes whether you can deploy frameworks correctly and spot when an AI applies them superficially or incorrectly.

   For example: “Write a brief model answer to a Five Forces analysis of a SaaS market, then describe what you would flag if an AI model submitted a response that named all five forces but listed them without connecting each to actual competitive dynamics in the sector.”

3. 3.Numerical and financial precision

   Consulting relies on accurate math and financial logic; this checks whether you catch errors that might look plausible but are wrong.

   For example: “An AI calculates that a 10% price increase on a product with 60% gross margin and $100M revenue would improve profit by $6M; identify the error and explain why this matters to business strategy.”

4. 4.Feedback for model improvement

   Part of your role is coaching the AI; this tests whether you can write feedback that is specific, actionable, and teaches rather than just critiques.

   For example: “An AI submitted a market entry strategy that lacked competitive positioning and pricing rationale; write a 100-word feedback note that names these gaps and indicates how a consultant would strengthen the response.”

5. 5.Firm-specific consulting style

   Different consulting firms have different communication styles and depth expectations; this checks whether you can articulate your firm's standards.

   For example: “How would your consulting firm's expected level of analysis depth differ in a response to an 'overview strategy' versus a 'deep-dive case,' and how would you communicate this expectation in feedback to an AI model?”

A task you may get

Write a consulting-style response to: 'A regional bank's market share fell 15% in a metro; diagnose the cause and recommend three actions.' Then write feedback for an AI that submitted surface-level analysis without prioritization.

How to prepare

• Retrieve a case or project from your consulting experience where you owned the analytical work; review how you framed the problem, applied frameworks, and communicated insights.
• Prepare a crisp explanation of your firm's problem-solving methodology: how cases are scoped, issues are prioritized, and excellence in reasoning is defined.
• Compile one example of feedback you have given a colleague or mentee in consulting; review it for clarity and specificity, noting how you would adjust the tone for AI coaching.
• Review a recent business case; draft a consulting-style response and note what analytical rigor you would demand from an AI in this domain.
