Try a Accenture HireVue question

Accenture's HireVue reflects the world's largest consulting firm by headcount — a scale that shapes every aspect of their process. With hundreds of graduate hires across Strategy, Consulting, Technology, and Operations, Accenture's video questions are calibrated to identify which stream you fit rather than whether you're "good enough." Their scoring maps against Accenture's leadership competencies (client value creation, people development, thought leadership), and answers that demonstrate technology fluency alongside business thinking score significantly higher than pure strategy responses.
