Entretien
The interviewers asked me questions about my academic background and why I was interested in an internship in economic consulting and antitrust at CRA. Then they asked me to present an empirical project of mine: I described my bachelor thesis and explained the econometrics behind it. Finally, we moved to the discussion of a case study: the estimation of damages in a cartel case.
