- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills — able to structure problems, work with data, and draw insights.
- Working knowledge of software (Power Point, Excel, Google Sheets, ChatGPT etc.) and a strong motivation to deepen analytical skills.
- Clear and confident communication skills in both Hungarian and English, written and verbal.
- A collaborative and adaptable mindset, thriving in multidisciplinary team environments.
- A bachelor’s or master’s degree in any field.

- A supportive learning environment with mentorship from experienced consultants.
- Hands-on exposure to strategy, data, and digital projects with real impact.
- Opportunities for rapid professional growth and advancement.
- A competitive salary and modern work tools (laptop, work phone plan, AI subscriptions).

Our Recruitment Process
Our selection process is designed to be transparent, fair, and an opportunity for you to get to know us as much as we get to know you. We aim to understand how you think, solve problems, and approach challenges — not just what’s on your CV.
1. Application & CV Screening
After reviewing your application, our team carefully assesses your background, motivation, and alignment with the role. If your profile matches what we’re looking for, we’ll invite you to the next stage.
2. Take-Home Case Assignment
Shortlisted candidates receive a take-home case to solve at their own pace. The exercise assesses analytical, qualitative, and quantitative thinking, allowing you to demonstrate how you approach real-world consulting problems. Clear instructions and supporting materials will be provided to help you structure your work.
3. In-Person Assessment Day
Successful candidates are invited to an in-person assessment session at our Budapest office, lasting approximately three hours.
The session includes three parts:
- A TSA (Thinking Skills Assessment) to evaluate structured reasoning.
- A group problem-solving exercise, where you’ll collaborate with others to tackle a challenge.
- Individual interviews focusing on your motivation, experience, and how you approach complex situations.
4. Final Round Interviews
Candidates who perform strongly in the assessment day are invited to a final round of in-person interviews.
This stage includes:
- A case study–based problem-solving interview, where you work through a real consulting-style scenario with a senior team member.
- A partner interview, focused on your long-term potential, fit with our values, and your aspirations within the team.
This final step gives you the chance to ask deeper questions, understand our work and culture more fully, and ensure that Solutions Lab is the right place for your growth.
Throughout the process, we aim to create a supportive and open atmosphere. Our goal is to ensure you have the chance to show your strengths, gain insight into our work, and decide whether Solutions Lab feels like the right fit for you.
