ABOUT THIS COMPANY:

A winning combination

Capgemini is a global consultancy engaged in information technology, management consulting, outsourcing and professional services.  Headquartered in Paris, it employs over 92,000 people through offices in over 30 countries.  The company’s clients are active in the automotive, consumer products, distribution, energy, chemicals, financial services, health care, life sciences, manufacturing, retail, media and telecoms industries, as well as the public sector.

The company underwent something of a shift in identity in April 2009, creating a new strategic business unit known as Capgemini Consulting—a move that brought all of its worldwide strategy and transformation operations consulting operations under one banner, and installed the company as the largest European consulting outfit at a stroke.  The Capgemini Consulting unit employs over 4,000 consultants worldwide and contributes some 8 percent of total revenue. Headquartered in London, Capgemini Consulting is headed by Pierre Yves-Cros, and has three practice areas, each dedicated to business transformation: strategy and transformation, operations transformation (which includes marketing, sales and service, finance and employee transformation, and supply chain management), and technology transformation (where services include "technovision," accelerated IT restructuring and consulting for CIOs).  According to the company, this new structure allows it to better utilize its global standing to benefit clients through sharing of best practices and experience across the company.

SURVEY SAYS


European gentle giant

Capgemini consultants appear to be very happy with their company's culture.  “Our company is a great place to work, where you can turn ideas into reality.  It understands that its people are its brand, and it treats you as individuals,” a contact states.  It’s also a fun place to work, with managers who believe “that when you have fun with your work, you work to your best.”  One consultant even describes the culture as “pretty gentle and European”, while others highlight its “flat hierarchies”, “informal style” and openness to diversity.  “People can do what they want, as long as they deliver the desired results and do not conflict with the corporate values of Capgemini,” says a source.

Tips from the inside

All over in 24 hours

Getting into Capgemini can “be very grueling.  However, the level of difficulty is dependent on the practice you are joining and the grade you want to join.”  For graduates, there is an online application followed by an online test, which, if all goes well, is accompanied by a telephone interview by a consultant.  Next comes a day at the assessment centre, involving between three to six fit and case-based interviews with consultants of all levels, a verbal reasoning test, presentations and team behavioural exercises.
