Make sure you are good at mental math, you will need to do calculations on the fly as part of the case - simple stuff but can be embarrassing if your math skills are rusty

Relax and be yourself. With the right attitude and solid preparation the interview process can be enjoyable.

One of the reasons I want to transition from industry to consulting (tier 1) is that I get frustrated when I have to collaborate with mediocre people. My assumption is that Tier 1 consulting firms hire really sharp people and if I can get in, I’ll be collaborating with folks on top of their game (not expecting much from clients). I’m aware there are personal aspects I need to work on like my mindset, patience etc etc, but I just get so frustrated with blatant stupidity.
