ABOUT THIS COMPANY:
Small but polishedWith almost 600 employees spread across six offices in the US, UK and India, Diamond Management & Technology Consultants operates in a niche market and boasts an enviable client list, having worked with the likes of Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, American Express, Barclays Bank, Royal Bank of Scotland, Royal & Sun Alliance, and Cadbury Schweppes. The firm has undergone a couple of shifts in identity and focus since its founding in 1994. Starting out under founder Mel Bergstein as Diamond Technology Partners, the firm also operated as DiamondCluster International before settling on its current identity in 2006, following the sale of one of its units.
Today’s iteration works with Fortune 500 companies and covers industry practices such as consumer packages goods, financial services, health care, insurance, logistics, manufacturing, public-sector organizations, retail and distribution, and telecommunications.

Getting Hired
Tips from the inside
Meet and greetThe hiring process at Diamond is reportedly “competitive”, with only four or five graduate offers made in the UK each year. Consultants make it clear that candidates should “tailor their CVs and cover letters to Diamond”, as “generic” ones will be binned automatically. The process involves two to three rounds of interviews, “each with a case study and general background” questions. Past case questions have included the likes of: “How many tennis balls are there in the UK?” or “How many hotel rooms are there in London?”
