Does AI grade the candidate's recommendation?

No. Fixed rules score the deliverable against an expert-defined answer space, and no AI model grades the response. Every prompt is kept for human review. People make the hiring decision.

Does this replace our case interview?

No. It runs before the case interview, so case time goes to candidates whose work already holds up. The case interview still shows how a candidate structures a problem live, and the assessment shows how they check an AI draft against the client's data.

Will our legal team accept automated scoring of an AI task?

Scoring is deterministic: fixed rules against an expert-defined answer space, documented in the Technical Manual. No AI or machine learning makes automated hiring decisions. Business tasks always run with the AI Assistant on, and every prompt is saved for review. Bring your legal team in early and we will supply the documentation.

Does this cover every consulting specialty?

General business tasks work across roles. Tailored tasks cover sales, marketing, finance, operations and customer roles. Our team confirms task fit before you send an assessment. Coverage varies by specialty.

Can we assess other roles, and the consultants we already employ?

Yes. Skills Intelligence runs the same business tasks for employees to establish a baseline and plan development. For other functions, see Assess AI skills across your business.

We also hire engineers. Does this fit alongside our technical assessment?

Yes. Codility assesses engineering candidates on real-world tasks and in live technical interviews on the same platform, and consulting and IT services firms run both. See how consulting and IT services firms use Codility

Candidate’s comment

The two sites cost $6.7M. Moving their volume to the Midwest hub costs about $3.9M, so the net saving is nearer $2.8M.

AI drafts the first pass now. A case interview can’t show who will catch its errors before the client does.

01

Client recommendations must stand up to partner review and client questions.

02

One wrong figure in an AI draft can reach a steering committee deck.

03

A case interview shows how a candidate structures a problem. It shows little about how they check an AI draft against the client’s data.

04

Campus and experienced hires join the same client teams, and each pipeline screens for AI skills differently, if at all.

Start with a task that looks like client work

Choose a general task or one matched to a function such as finance. Candidates might check a client report against its source data.

Role-tailored tasks cover functions such as finance and data analysis
Another task turns an engagement brief into a recommendation
Tasks take 5 to 60 minutes

Consulting task brief with an attached spreadsheet open as a table beside it

See how the candidate checks the evidence

Source files open beside the brief, with spreadsheets shown as tables. Candidates check AI output against the data and catch deliberate errors in some tasks. Every assistant exchange is saved.

Review the score before the case interview

Fixed rules score deliverables against expert-defined criteria. No AI model grades responses. Recruiting teams and first-round interviewers review scores, assessed skills, integrity risk ratings and every prompt before deciding whom to invite to case interviews.
