Below is an overview of what to expect. Each interview round will be a dynamic, one-hour session designed to provide you with multiple opportunities to demonstrate your skills:
1st Business Case Interview:
2nd and 3rd Business Case Interviews:
To get ready for the Business Case Interviews, we recommend to engage in practice sessions with others. Mistakes often arise from structural issues, so it is helpful to create a clear framework that allows the interviewer to follow your thought process and solution development.
Remember, it is absolutely fine not to have all the answers immediately. Therefore, communicate with the interviewer, ask questions if needed, and listen up for any hints, as they could hold valuable insights. Show us that you understood the assignment by focusing on the key points and prioritizing like a pro. At Singular, the expectation is not that you already know everything - but that you are able to learn everything.
Last but not least, reflect on your motivation and enjoy the process!

Typically, interviews are conducted in English as this is our working language. However, if both you and your interviewer share a native language, parts of the interview may be conducted in that language. Regardless, we recommend candidates to prepare for both scenarios.
The "Singular Exercise" is a virtual task designed to be completed within 4 hours. It includes work in PowerPoint and Excel to assess key skills for the role. There is no prior preparation required; all instructions and materials will be provided with the exercise.
When thinking about how to make a difference, start by understanding what drives you personally. Be specific and give real examples when answering questions. During the interview, actively engage with the interviewer, making sure they can follow your thoughts and ideas. Even if you come across topics you are not familiar with, approach them with logical assumptions and a problem-solving mindset. We are looking for dependable and trustworthy team players - strive to demonstrate these qualities throughout your interview.
