SEEK is a strategic and managing consulting firm, meaning we work with our clients on high-level work, including strategy development processes, resource mobilization strategies, positioning, and more. We do not, however, engage in programmatic work. We work mainly with clients in the public sector and NGOs but engage with a select few private organizations looking to make positive social change.
Our team is passionate and motivated to work hard. We treat our clients first and foremost, as partners as we seek social change. Our culture is characterized by trust, openness, and collaboration.

We will send you the case study on a date of your choice. The case study is intended to reveal your approach to problem-solving as you would for our customers, so you should not feel the need to study beforehand, but rather work diligently to clearly structure and eloquently present your findings.
Ideally, you should spend enough time on the case study to adequately structure and make a clear case for the customer, but no more than 8 working hours. During the panel interview, you will present your results to the team.
We do our best to conduct interviews and complete the application process quickly. However, depending on the position and the availability of suitable interviewers, it can take a few weeks to complete the process.
