Trinity Consulting Any advice is welcome! I have a round one with TRINITY this week and then a round one with Health Advances next week. I am a second year MBA candidate with a background in lab and have been doing sales for about a year now. Any advice on how I can best crush the interview?!?!?

(Does Trinity allow calculators for cases? Email says calculators will be allowed for some sections)

I interviewed with trinity last year and made it to final rounds. Did not get an offer because I was not educated enough in the life sciences industry. They asked me about something I found interesting in the news recently. I’m a PharmD so thought I knew my life sciences but still got a rejection!

I would really try to do the math without a calculator.

Math in health advances case was simple enough to not really need a calculator even if you're not too strong in math.

Recently interview with HA for analyst position (waiting for final round interview). HA was very very down to earth and genuinely kind - also allowed use of calculator on my case. Found the experience with them more than pleasant. Though should mention that I'm an MPH candidate so was talking through more specific public health-focused stuff.

like

Agree with above--HA case math should not require a calculator. For HA, all our cases are written by the interviewers based on their own case work, so they can vary a lot and be a bit non-standard. So just go with the flow of it and address the questions/situation at hand and don't try to force a framework that you read in a book onto the case because it likely won't work well. So instead of using a standard framework, just think about the problem that's been presented to you and what areas you'd like to dive into to solve it.

My perhaps naive perspective is that Brahmins are a caste but also a religious subsect. One can be religious and seek similar devotees without believing in or perpetuating caste hierarchy. Reductive or fair?

Hey! Any Google folks know if it’s possible to negotiate fully remote if a contract role is hybrid?

I just think it’s a fair trade off if I’d be allowed to work fully remote. I’m also trying to have flexibility to manage my Airbnb business in a different country. Same time zone as the home office if I’d travel weeks at a time.
