Candidatei-me online. Fui entrevistado pela Mastercard (Sydney) em abr. de 2017
Entrevista
Applied online. Attended the final round interview but didn't get the offer.
Both first and final round interviews were typical consulting case interviews (business case + estimation question) with one or two behavioural questions. First round interview was with senior consultant/manager; final round was with directors.
Cases they used focused on the retail segment. Most problems were about evaluating a business initiative aiming to promote sales. They would like you to ask more questions about customers and really understand their possible response to the initiative. That's what I learnt from their feedback.
In terms of the culture and people, it surely is an excellent company with nice guys working there. I Had lots of conversation with them and lunch with the Head of Office even after I failed in the interview.

first round consists of 2 case studies, 30mins each. They were dissimilar to a typical business case that you would do for MBB for example. Instead, its much more like a single problem that you have to solve. Will typically be a revenue problem for example or 'should we go ahead with this project'. Behavioural was about 7mins long and is basic. If you clear the first stage, second round is four 45min cases.
Candidatei-me por meio de uma faculdade ou universidade. O processo levou 3 semanas. Fui entrevistado pela Mastercard (Washington, DC) em out. de 2018
Entrevista
I applied through campus recruiting. I had two on-campus first round interviews and then 4-5 second round interviews in the DC office. In addition, the super-day included a presentation, lunch, and a networking dinner the night before. All of the interviews involved a case and some personality questions/questions about why I wanted to join APT. The interview process overall was nice, and everyone I met was genuine and enthusiastic about their jobs. I turned down the offer because the work itself didn't seem terribly exciting.
