Hmu I'm looking for a casing buddy too!

Victor Cheng’s Case Frameworks + YouTube videos are a good start. Keep in mind his focus is on interviewee-led usually and McK does interviewer-led. Otherwise, a good resource

PrepLounge is an amazing online resource where you can also find lots of people willing to practice live cases.

Hi there -
I applied to an experienced consultant position at Bain and just heard back. Yesterday, I received an invite to a HireVue one-way interview to complete. Today, I received an invite for a coffee chat with a consultant. I’m of course going to do both, but the emails make it seem like they are almost two separate paths/disconnected processes. Can anybody offer some insight into each of these/the process?
