Pretty interesting case study that was provided. A lot of scope to ask clarifying questions and develop line of thought and strategy. The good thing was that they were pretty transparent about there not being a right or wrong answer, but they wanted to follow my train of thought and rationale as I developed a response in real time.

Interview Questions
  • How would you present the results of this case study in a one-pager to the C-suite?

Great process, structured interviews with clear objectives. Approachable interviewers. Very open to sharing feedback. The process included 1 guesstimate round, 2 case study rounds followed by final interview with the partner. Partner round is generally more free-flowing and less structured. Expect unconventional cases.
