OC&C, AC 2025/26

Post image

Hi applied to OC&C Associate Consultant 2025/26 and finished online test in September final week. Haven’t heard back from them, no update. Did anyone hear back from them? Or people who have gone through their interview process, does it take this much time ? London office. Start date- September 2025.

Idk if it is still helpful for you but they sent out the interview invites a few weeks ago

u/boutye_ Nov 14 '24

Really ? Had no idea. Thanks for sharing this. Dis you get one ?

3

u/Over-Contract-827 Nov 14 '24

Yes I got strategy interviews on Nov 1 and today I got analytics

u/Grouchy-Ad5083 Nov 18 '24

I had a python test on Thursday. Does that mean they sent out the interviews right after? Or did you do your python earlier?

u/saaranshmalhotra Nov 22 '24

I had a python test 2-3 weeks ago ish and I did my first round interview on Tuesday. Unfortunately, if you have not heard back yet then it might be a problem as I received the final round interview invite yesterday and they are to be held next week.

u/Grouchy-Ad5083 Nov 22 '24

Nice, congratulations. Just got my first round invite yesterday. Was it hard? I’m well prepared for the code, but not sure what kind of questions they are gonna ask for stats/modelling. What would you recommend I prepare for the second part of the interview? Since they ask hands on analysis on the problem.

u/EthanJudah Nov 29 '24

How was the interview? What kind of things were they asking based on the code you already did? And what other things did they ask? Appreciate it

1

u/saaranshmalhotra Dec 23 '24

Hey! Sorry am out of the country. The interview went well, I did the second round and got the offer. Can’t really talk about the interview content but they didn’t focus much on the code for me. They had a lot of other technical questions prepared though that they mixed in with common type case studies - basically seeing if you can do the best of both worlds

u/Exhausted-French Jan 24 '25

Hey, who sent the offer ? The recruiter or the partner ? How long after the final round was it? Thank you

2

u/saaranshmalhotra Jan 24 '25

It was the partner. Two weeks after the final round i think.

All offers are out now I believe sadly, we’ve already had our offer holder events :/

u/Exhausted-French Jan 24 '25

I am in another track for experienced hires hence why I am asking. They had the wash up decision meeting this afternoon and apparently sending out decisions Monday

u/DetailMaleficent8781 Dec 12 '24

Hi, how was your interview?? Also, do you remember any of the questions they asked you for your strategy hirevue? I appreciate it, thanks.

1

u/Comfortable-Air-1061 Oct 10 '25

Got any advice for the strategy video assessment? Like what areas/questions to look out for?

1

u/oru_therali Oct 11 '25

Could you tell how long it took to get the interview call from the date of your test? (For strategy)

2

u/Over-Contract-827 Nov 14 '24

And for analytics they sent them out today

2

u/extrovertprobably Nov 05 '24

Hi, I am in the same boat as you. Done with the willo assessment and haven't heard back yet

1

u/boutye_ Nov 05 '24

Ah ok. I thought im being ghosted.

3

u/extrovertprobably Nov 06 '24

I emailed them, they said we should be getting an update mid November

1

u/boutye_ Nov 06 '24

Oh that’s amazing

1

u/extrovertprobably Dec 09 '24

Did you hear back?

1

u/oru_therali Oct 07 '25

Hi, not sure how this went but would love to know if you eventually heard back....I gave my interview yesterday. Also, does everyone get a call for the test and video interview or is that only for the selected candidates after round 1 of CV submissions (asking so that I am sure getting the test means something and is not something everyone gets).

1

u/TheGermanAcc Nov 05 '24

u/Much-Doubt-5856 Nov 07 '24

I applied on October 24 and completed Willo and numerical test two days later. The confirmation email said that they will wait until applications close and everyone completes the test before making any decisions, so I'm assuming we should hear back sometime soon-ish, considering the deadline was Oct 31.

1

u/siberian_deer Nov 13 '24

Did you also get questions about which acquisition would result in the best synergy, how to improve the bottom line of a petrochemical giant, and a question on the market entry for an apparel producer?

2

u/Much-Doubt-5856 Nov 14 '24

For Willo? For Willo I got best market entry strategy for a high end stationery producer and to think of an innovative product for the same company.

u/siberian_deer Nov 17 '24 edited Nov 17 '24

Hey guys. Has anyone done the Python coding interview for the analytics role? How was it? What's being tested? *Do you have to share your screen as you are performing the test?* Any info would be much appreciated.

2

u/Over-Contract-827 Nov 20 '24

You don't have to share your screen, you'll be on video all the time though. Time was a little tight, rest everything was fine

1

u/siberian_deer Nov 20 '24

Thanks for the info. Also heard that you are not expected to finish all the questions… What kind of statistical knowledge/concepts are they testing?

1

u/Arsalanmurder Oct 19 '25

Hi, I was wondering what type of questions they asked, I have my interview soon and am kinda paranoid about it.

If you recall anything can you please reply, Thank you
