The recruitment procedures in Dublin and London are different.
Dublin doesn't do case studies etc in the second interview. Second round is more like a repeat of the first round, three times, with a manager, sr. manager and a sr. exec.
Advice to irishstudent- if you've been informed that you've made it through to the second round, call Grad Recruitment and tell them you want to speak to some analysts about their interviews, the company etc. They'll be happy to help you.

I didn't think there would be much of a difference - I'm actually from Northern Ireland and I assumed Dublin and London would be carbon copies of each other - hell they share street names :)
I hope my info about the first round is accurate. You prob can't be sure - but I mean all interviews are the same, aren't they? Standard interview preparation for any company will involve:
-read up on the job role
-read up on the company's news
-read up on the industry
(www.top-consultant.com and www.managementconsultancy.co.uk
are good places for this)
-read a daily national newspaper for a week before your interview, or economist
If you do all that you'll cover all your bases: in interviews in the past I have been asked such wide ranging questions as "what do you think about cannabis?" to "what do you think about Iraq?".
But Accenture's all process driven, I wouldn't imagine any question which requires the interviewer actually having to interpret what you say! [don't take this the wrong way - I am going to Accenture, think it's a good opportunity]
Good Luck!!!!
