I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Booz Allen Hamilton (Chicago, IL) in Jan 2021
Interview
Straightforward, took three months from application. Applied through university. Spoke with alum for screening, talked with a senior associate, interviewed with a team member. Took place virtually with video. Three 30minute interviews with behavioral questions and fit questions.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Booz Allen Hamilton (Washington, DC) in Mar 2021
Interview
After I submitted my application, I received an email from a recruiter notifying me that the manager for the role I applied for was interested in moving to the next step. She sent me an email to help me prepare for the interview and understand BAH's benefits and culture. A week or so later I had a call with 3 people from the team where I had a chance to ask questions, learn more about the role and team culture, and answer questions they posed. Everyone was extremely friendly, smart, and helpful. The recruiter and her team stayed in touch with me and kept me up to date with what was going on on their end and next steps throughout the process. Within a week of the interview, I received a verbal offer with a chance to negotiate. Within the following week, I received the official offer and accepted it. It was a clear and thorough process and I feel very confident in my decision to join the firm and the team.
