Preparing for the interview
Accenture publishes guidance for behavioural and skills interviews. Behavioural discussion examines how you handle work situations; a skills interview explores knowledge and expertise relevant to the job.

These are interview types used at Accenture, not a promise of an identical sequence or a case interview for every role.
