I applied through college or university. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at IBM (Washington, DC) in Dec 2015
Interview
The process was quite long, but only consisted of one round of interviews. I met recruiters at a campus info session and received an interview invite 3 weeks later. The actual interview took place in Herndon, VA, about 5 weeks after the initial meeting.
The interviews consisted of 2 behavioral and 1 case interview. If you've been preparing for consulting interviews, there is nothing here you wouldn't expect. I did find the case to be easier than other cases I've had. In fact, the simplicity of it tripped me up at first, as I took too broad of an approach. Make sure you know why you want to be a consultant and why IBM.
I received my offer 4 business days after my interview.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at IBM (São Paulo, São Paulo) in Oct 2025
Interview
A entrevista foi dividida em duas etapas e foi tranquila. Porém, na primeira entrevista, a vaga tinha um escopo. Na segunda etapa, a vaga ganhava um escopo totalmente diferente. Com a quebra de expectativa, não senti segurança em continuar o processo seletivo e declinei a continuação.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Foram perguntas técnicas sobre a minha atuação profissional e foram fáceis de responder. Propuseram um teste, mas optei por não realizá-lo, pois desisti de continuar o processo seletivo.
first round: english written test （gre level）
second round: meet with manager of the project, asked about cv and some behavioral question.
third round: meet with manager and partner, self-introduction, talk about a related project i have done before, some behavirol question, doing a presentation
difficult they asked very technical questions and some behavioral. Some if them had nothing to do with the role so it caught me off guard a bit and it was tedious
