Book Preview:
#1 The case interview is a unique interviewing format that firms such as McKinsey Company, Bain Company, Boston Consulting Group, Oliver Wyman, and others use. It is used to evaluate candidates with wide-ranging backgrounds.
#2 The case interview is a trial run of the actual consulting interview. I learned that the most profitable skill I could learn while in school was not related to English, math, psychology, history, economics, or science. It was how to pass the case interview.
#3 My experience as a job seeker and a consultant has shaped my perspective of the case interview. I’ve developed an uncommon insight into the case interview from having been on both sides of the table, and that’s what I share with you here.
#4 The case interview process is made up of seven parts. Part One provides a big-picture view of the process and the different types of evaluation tools used. Part Two covers quantitative assessments. Part Three discusses the fundamentals of tackling real case interviews. Part Four covers the primary frameworks you’ll use to solve the business problems presented in the case interview. Part Five covers the traditional candidate-led case interview format. Part Six describes the other types of case interviews and how to handle them.
