Slalom interview

Hi everyone, I was just contacted for an interview for a data visualization interview at slalom. Any advice would be helpful. From what I've read you do an interview with HR then the manager then the general manager. Did they have you do a case study?

No formal case study but the questions were related to project they were doing. Just grabbed my ideas

Any idea how much will be salary for IT consultant

This isn't really a question that is easy to answer. Every slalom office is independent of each other. Every practice has those own way of doing things within each office. My interview consisted of 2 convos with the same director and then 1 principle consultant.

Data viz is in high demand. You can push them. Keep in mind Slalom has strong culture that is a major factor to weight as long as that is important to you.

Thanks I feel like this is a huge step in my career. Do you know what the most important skills are for data viz? I have strong skills in excel and tableau but haven't had to use sql since college

SQL would be helpful, but demonstrating good visualization skills is more important. For example, show how to make an uncluttered, but visually pleasing dashboard that will provide a business exec with all of the key metrics they need to make effective decisions. They should be able to consume the entire dashboard content in 2-3 minutes. Effective use of colors to highlight underperforming areas and call to action is a huge plus.

I just received my case study and the data is limited. I am wondering if I should take a few approaches like 3 dashboards. First as if I'm presenting to the client second presenting to slalom and third just an overall or keep it focused to one? I don't think there is enough useful data to do more
