Hitachi Consulting Interview Questions & Reviews

Interview Details Two Rounds of Interviews

1st round consisted of 2 30 minutes 1 on 1 interviews--mostly behavioral questions and resume explanation

2nd round consisted of 3 half hour 1 on 1 interviews and a case study

overall a very stress free interview process

Interview Details Had one on one interview with immediate supervisor and phone interview with his/her supervisor. Good balance of comfortable and professional.

Negotiation Details – I had a clear idea of my market value, and brought that to the discussions.

Interview Details I applied for the job through my university. I heard back about a week later and went to the Career Center for an Interview. The initial interview is with 2 or 3 Managers or Senior Managers. It is mainly behavioral, but they did ask me some case interview-esque questions (e.g., market estimate). It was a pleasant experience and all my interviewers were alums of my university. I was advanced to the final round a week later. This last round consisted of 4 interviews with VP's. They asked questions about my resume, behavioral questions and again, some case-esque questions. All of them were very pleasant. After the interviews we went out to lunch, and I think this was the interesting part: you have 12 or so Type A's all vying for a job. I ended up getting an offer about a week and a half later. Great experience interviewing. Accepted the offer.

Interview Details Interview process consisted of one on-campus interview (about 30 minutes). If invited for a second round, it takes place in-house: 3-4 one-on-one interviews with Managers and above. Second round usually includes some sort of meal for meet and greet (dinner the night before, breakfast, one-on-one lunch). All questions are behavioral around the resume: strengths/weaknesses, accomplishments, leadership and group experiences.

Interview Details Very comfortable interview process. Interview with one director, two senior managers, and the VP.

Mostly behavioral questions; senior managers may ask more technical or analytical questions.

After the interview, they treat you to a lunch with current associates.

Overall, an enjoyable process. Too bad I didn't get the position.

Interview Details For the technical tract, the interview process started after the internal recruiters were given my information by an employee. The first call was with what would be my boss and simply was a "how interested are you" conversation as well as a quick overview of the company.

The follow up was a day of interviews consisting of technical and business screens with a peer, an immediate superior and an interested (but not directly connected) manager. The final interview was with the practice leader (a managing vice president).

Negotiation Details – My offer was what I had demanded in the first place so there was no negotiation. However, knowing what you want before they ask would be helpful and feel free to push back if it is not what you expect.

Interview Details There was a telephone interview with one of their architects. Pretty basic stuff. Then, I was invited to Seattle office for three rounds of interivew. First Round with another Senior Consultant, second round with director and the third round with VP. The interivew was good. They offered me the position within a week. They were very professional.

Negotiation Details – Negotiate to get what you want.

Interview Details Hitachi brought in about 25 students from various schools to interview for the tactical and business positions. Interviews were simple-- mainly just talking about yourself and your interests to 4 VPs. They were draining because they were back to back interviews and then a lunch with current employees afterward.

Interview Details very good process. right on track

Negotiation Details – good
