context_section_description: Oliver Wyman is notoriously challenging to break into, recruiting almost exclusively from elite universities. The company has described recruitment as a "competitive sport... for top students", utilizing controversial tactics such as declining bonuses to secure employees early. Glassdoor has ranked the company as the 3rd most difficult to interview for in the world. Applicants go through multiple rounds of phone interviews, leading up to a case interview which tests problem-solving and analytical skills. Poets & Quants has ranked the company as #1 with the Best Interview process and Best Pay.
  From 2015 to 2018, Oliver Wyman doubled the size of its digital practice. A spokesperson said the firm was "increasingly hiring people that have those skills". The company also began an autism hiring initiative in 2015 and pledged to hire qualified refugees during the 2016 European migrant crisis.
