Here are the most commonly searched roles for interview reports -
2 back-to-back case interviews at school career center. Got interviewers' profile before going in. Each started with 1-2 behavioral questions, then a case (market entry, profitability, market-sizing) and ended with a couple of questions for the interviewer.
2 rounds of interviews, each round consisting of 3 interviews with cases. In the first round 2 case interviews and 1 with HR. In the 2nd round you have 3 interviews with more senior profiles like managers and partners.
Interviewers were really nice, but the process was difficult. Standard level cases and they expected you to take them through multiple business problems. If you practice casing frequently with multiple partners, you should be fine.

Question 1
Please walk me through how you would approach this case.
2 cases for R1. Pretty straightforward cases about revenue optimization opportunities. There was a little bit of market sizing but all data needed was given. No behaviorals asked in round 1 for me.
