Anyone completed the 2 hour case study & excel exercise for Alvarez & Marsal PEPI CDD recently and know what to expect/ prepare for?

1. What type of case is given? Should I keep preparing for the “standard” 30/40 Min candidate/interviewer led case studies or switch focus?

2. What type of excel exercise is given and is it linked to the case?

3. Can I expect technical questions related to accounting/PE/valuation?

Please reach out!

If it’s CDD, probably a typical market entry or market assessment case.

How was the case? Was it the standard 30-60min candidate-led case?

I don’t know what’s going so wrong.

I have applied to 42 jobs and received 20 rejections, with 0 opportunities to even interview.

My resume is from WSO template, and I used suggested wording from various popular resume websites.

I don’t understand why I’ve gotten such a large amount of rejections. Am I applying to position in under or over qualified for? Does my resume suck? Is it just a bad time to apply? How do I improve from here?

I knew I was very early in the process since the job had only been posted for a few days. It's been 3 weeks and I haven't heard back, even after reaching out to the recruiter. Have I been ghosted or is there still hope? Does anyone at Visa have insights? Looks like there are a ton of jobs posted so maybe they are just backed up?
