I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at GEP
Interview
Pro: (hard to think) but it makes you reflect your life and possible warning of having the worst person as your supervisor
Con: Worst interview experience ever.
Applied through campus career website, got a phone interview offer.
Interviewer was rude, the case was vague with no information what so ever.
Maybe they are doing stress interview.
Every answer I gave, interviewer cut my words and I almost felt like she wanted me to fail this interview.
She was definitely not happy even when I was giving appropriate and tailored answer that a manager from the major consulting firm that I met during a practice interview night complimented about.
Not sure if I want to work with them even if I get an offer.
I hope this interviewer was intentionally giving me a hard time, or she's an exceptional character in this firm.
If not I believe there is absolutely no reason for anyone to work here unless your family is dying from extreme poverty.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Resume /Why GEP/ Case (be aware** they give you no information, and whatever you say something interviewer says "so what else" "assume that client already did that" and if you ask for the data if client already did it interviewer says "we don't have the data")
Applied in November. Multiple rounds including online assessment, HR call, language test, case study. Interviewers were professional and friendly. Overall interview process stretched a bit due to holidays. Would recommend applying.

Question 1
Normal HR questions. Case study based on a scenario in a specific industry.
Easy interview first round. On-campus interview asked a basic market sizing/profitability case. Nice interviewers.
Superday had an easy market sizing portion, easy behavioral. Standard consulting. Last case in superday was difficult, I believe it was profitability and market entry. Interviewers were willing to help you though.
Never got a response after my superday, company just totally ghosted. Would be nice to get a rejection email after doing 4 interviews but what can ya do. Liked the people but the general consensus among them seems to be that its a mid tier firm and most ppl leave after a few years. Those who stay get rewarded.
I applied through university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at GEP (Mumbai) in Oct 2024
Interview
Cases and Guesstimates were asked alongside puzzles similar to CAT level DILR questions, imp topics included - permutation and combinations , primary interviewer led. The interviewer gave me answers to all questions immediately and asked just the reasoning.

Question 1
If 25 horses are running across a track, how will you find the top 5 and in how many trials, can you tell which ones would be in the top 5.(the last part was an extension after working on the same puzzle for sometime)
