Accenture Strategy Graduate Programme 2025 - 2026 Final Stage Interview London Office

Hi there,

There is not much online about Accenture STA, I found this past thread (Link 1 ) and this post in external forum (Link 2).
Maybe your best shot is to reach out to HR to understand what is expected, as stated by other coach in Link 1. 
Sorry for not bringing a clear solution to this problem, lets see if there are past Accenture folks here who can share their experience.
Best,
Mari
 

Hey there 😊, after looking up Accenture’s career resources and speaking to some contacts, here’s how you can best prepare for your final interview for the Accenture Strategy Graduate Programme:

1️⃣ Case Study Interview

• Similar to other consulting case interviews—you’ll be given a business problem and expected to structure, analyze, and present a solution logically.
• Candidate-led approach—you should drive the discussion, asking for relevant data and breaking down the problem step by step.
• Focus areas may include market entry, profitability, digital transformation, or operational improvements.
• Preparation: Practice case interviews regularly with peers, use structured frameworks, and get comfortable with mental math and business judgment.

2️⃣ Strategic Thinking Assessment

• Evaluates your ability to approach complex, open-ended business problems.
• You might be asked a big-picture question (e.g., How would you advise a government to transition to a cashless society?).
• Key to success:
  • Structure your response clearly (e.g., economic, regulatory, technological, and social considerations).
  • Stay logical and prioritize high-impact factors.
  • Demonstrate big-picture thinking while providing practical solutions.

3️⃣ Additional Tips

• Be ready for fit/behavioral questions—know your "Why Accenture?" and "Why consulting?" answers inside out.
• Stay updated on industry trends—topics like AI, sustainability, and digital transformation often come up.
• Understand Accenture’s core values—showcase qualities that align with their innovation-driven and impact-focused culture.

Since your interview is next week, focus on structuring your thoughts clearly and practicing under time constraints. You’ve got this! Best of luck—let me know if you need more tips.

Best, Alessa 😇

Hi there,

First of all, congratulations on the progress in the application process with Accenture thus far!

I would be happy to share my thoughts on your question:

• I would highly advise you to contact the recruiter to inquire about the content of the Strategic Thinking Assessment to be sure.

You can find more on this topic here: How to succeed in the final interview round.

If you would like a more detailed discussion on how to best prepare for your upcoming Accenture interview, please don't hesitate to contact me directly.

Best,

Hagen

To prepare for this, I would do a lot of "structuring approach" and "brainstorming" type of questions from regular cases.
