    How do you prepare for Accenture Strategy interviews?

    You do not pass a Accenture Strategy interview by reciting a framework learnt by heart: the interviewer expects a structure built for the question just asked, accurate maths without a calculator and a recommendation you stand behind.

    Fit weighs as much as the case in several rounds of this process, so prepare your stories before you walk in. For the case, start with the questions that come up most, train your estimates and your mental maths, and treat the classic frameworks as a starting point you adapt.
