Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Describe your experience dealing with difficult personnel matters...
The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Booz Allen Hamilton
Interview
A series of panel interviews. It was much more focused on making sure I was a good culture fit than anything. The questions were not very hard, mostly about my background and experience. Everyone was very warm and welcoming, clearly focused more on fit than skills.
Applied online, had interview with recruiter. Recruiter was casual, too casual really. It was clear they did not have the background to evaluate technical candidates. The listing was pretty inaccurate regarding start date, salary, and contract length. The recruiter was positive about my application and said I would definitely have a follow up with the client facing recruiter later in the week. The next morning I received a rejection email.

Question 1
It was a life sciences consulting role so the recruiter asked my background in X,Y, and Z but any answer would have sufficed given their lack of technical expertise as long as it included the "buzz words" they were looking for.
