Simon-Kucher Interview London

Question

Has anyone interviewed with Simon-Kucher in London recently and can share some insights?

Answer 1

Hi Anonymous,

the process with SK is pretty similar to the standard one in a consulting interview

Fit questions (eg Why do you want to work for SK?)
Cases (eg How would you price the consumer offers for a telephone company?)
Your questions at the end for the interviewer.

According to your seniority, you could also have a group exercise.

What characterizes SK is that the company focus is on pricing, thus you will likely get a case on that and/or market sizing. Examples include:

How would you price a new antidepressant drug in the UK?
How much does a taxi drive make in one day?
How would you price the online subscription for a newspaper?

Hope this helps,
Francesco
