About to interview for a technology strategy senior consultant role at Deloitte but I have never done a case before. Any tips? Anything to read up on? Will the case be technical in nature or more generic? Thank you!

I prepared with a lot of YouTube videos. Regardless of topic, they can teach you how to break down the info to come up with a solution. This part of the interview is more about how you came to the solution rather than your actual solution. Would also suggest looking at what’s trending in your offering area, case will likely have something to do with those things.

My approach was fundamental YouTube videos understanding case studies (case interview cracked) > Case and point book (free PDF on Wall Street oasis) > management consulted YouTube

90% generic/10% technical. Only thing technical you need to know is how technology is related (e.g. system mapping, processes, etc.). The case studies for Accenture's CFO & EV and Deloittes F&EP case studies are helpful tools as well.

Best of luck!

I’m in big law and on the cusp of making the jump to in-house. It sounds like the company I just interviewed with is getting ready to make me an offer.

I’m so burnt out by big law and this seems like an awesome opportunity to help shape a newish company. Any tips on how to figure out if this is the right move for me?
