标题: 香港德勤·Group Assessment 分享

开始找工作，还是第一次参加群面，感觉挺有意思的。

气氛相对比较轻松，大家相处很愉快。结束后还和面试官聊了一会儿。

回家后第一时间打开电脑，花了一个多小时，把过程和体会写下来和大家分享，希望对大家有所帮助。

PS: 哦，回复一些站内信，补充下我的背景，港大在读硕士生，工程类专业。

Deloitte Group Assessment Sharing

Time: 24 October 2008, 16:00-18:00

Venue: One Pacific Place (Deloitte Office)

Interviewees: 8 candidates (1 from HKB, 1 from HKUST, 6 from HKU)

Interviewers: One HR manager (Peggy), one senior manager from TAX (Raymond?).

Topic: As member of the committee (members are from different functions), please suggest 5 strategies to fulfill ONE of the three objectives the telecom company wants to achieve to expand their market globally. Note that the company is a leading company in the domestic market and its main product are private communication systems and information systems. The three objectives are:

1. Reduce the product’s time to market;

2. Differentiate the product in innovation, quality and customer service;

3. Build a diversified (culture and background) workforce in international market.

We were asked to focus on the SECOND objective. I think they will ask different groups to talk about different objectives, based on the same company information.

Time arrangement:

10 minutes: Each one read the material and develops one strategy and thinks about its rationale;

35 minutes: Group discussion and preparation for presentation; (Any language is OK.)

20 minutes: Presentation in English; (Note that every member must present!)

10 minutes: Q&A. (Note that the interviewers may not ask everyone and they may ask only one or two questions.)

Details and tips in each session:

1. Before the assessment: We needed to fill a form to submit our CV and transcripts first. The HR manager also asked us to reconsider our application regarding the departments since consulting is very competitive and they always prefer experienced candidates. Audit hires the most and tax is the second largest hiring department. Then she read the instructions. Note that we can NOT ask any questions in later sessions until the Q&A session when they will ask us about our proposed strategies. We also had to make a brief self-introduction, which included name, university, major and the reason why you choose Deloitte.

2. Self reading: Read the instructions carefully, note that “Do not divide the whole group into sub groups!”, “Focus on only ONE objective”, etc.

3. Group discussion:

Ø Pay special attention to the time management. In our case, we all agreed to have one of us keep an eye on the timing and keep reminding us of the time. So we did great in time management and the interviewers praised us for this as well.

Ø Everyone should participate. Make sure nobody is silent in the process and everyone has the chance to contribute. Luckily, members in our group are all very active and we had a great time in brain storming. After the interview, the HR manager told me that the most important attribute they are looking for in group assessment is “Team spirit”. So do remember that this is not “ONE- MAN show”.

Ø Clarify the objective and framework first before discussion. Our group agreed to my proposal, which is based on the three differentiators: innovation, quality and customer service. Then under each differentiator we talked about the strategies relating to functional departments. It worked well and I think we were very clear in the logical thinking and discussion.

Ø Leave enough time for presentation preparation. We left 10 minutes for preparation, the first 5 minutes for group discussion and the last 5 minutes for each one to prepare their parts. (Note that the interviewer said we should NOT do this since this is sub grouping! Luckily we performed well as a group anyway. )

4. Presentation:

Ø Each of us presented one part: summary, 5 strategies and conclusion. Two candidates may involve in one part if the part contains more content.

Ø Have one person be the time manager and remind other members of the time, especially when they talk too much. In our case, since I began with the summary, so I also kept an eye on the time control.

5. Q&A:

Ø To our surprise, we only got two questions. “Which strategy is the most important one?” “Which part of this group assessment is the most challenging to you?” The HR manager asked two of us, who I think are not as outgoing as others. I guess the manger want to know whether we have clear communication within the group if everyone has a focus on one aspect during presentation. They gave great answers. So I think we should not miss any points in this session.

6. After the interview:

Ø A great time to ask questions about Deloitte. I think this part really depends on the interviewers’ attitude and personalities. If they welcome questions, do not miss it.

Ø We chatted for around half an hour and talked about the working style, job duties, and their advices for us fresh graduates in career design, etc.

Other tips:

Ø Arrive 15 minutes earlier at the least. You will meet other candidates while waiting. Make good use of the time to do some initial networking and get familiar with each other, which will definitely benefit your teamwork. In our case, we already knew each other’s basic information before the assessment. And amazingly, we all come from mainland, so in discussion we use Mandarin.

Ø The case itself is not that important. They will pay attention to how you develop the idea and communicate to others. So do not worry too much if you meet an unexpected case.

Ø Be relaxed and be yourself. Interview is a two-way process, so do not worry too much and try too hard. They just want to know more about you.

Ø Take initiative and contribute more. Take the opportunity to sell yourself and take care of others at the same time.

Good Luck to All!

是呀，她会建议你再慎重考虑一下的。咨询部门竞争太惨烈了，她跟我说每个group都有申请咨询的，但他们只要10个人左右。

作者: vistaman 时间: 2008-10-24 22:29
汉....ERS算不算咨询啊？我first choice填的是它。。还有你的topic是不是只是你粗略的总结？全文应该提供了具体的产品信息吧？

是的，同一个组里都有申请不同部门的人。所以题目应该是一样的。但是广州的题目是不是和香港一样我就不清楚了。

标题: 回复 51# suncyrus 的帖子
audit,本来是consulting的，但是HR manager看完我的简历，在群面之后跟我建议说，最好改成audit，机会比较大。毕竟我什么经验都没有，又是学工程的，背景不算强。所以就改了audit。

作者: karen-d 时间: 2008-10-29 23:46
标题: 回复 53# charleen 的帖子
看你们组里都是哪里人了，我们碰巧都是内地学生，所以讨论用普通话，presentation用英语，和HR聊天用广东话。讨论的时候只要大家彼此可以明白，用什么语言都成，普通话混合广东话也没有问题的。祝大家好运！
