Best advice for case prepping in short amount of time. I only have 3-4 weeks to case prep before interviews and need to maximize success in short amount of time.

Do mock case interviews with others. That's the best practice. Try to do at least 15.

Case in Point I think is the book. You can find a free copy on the internet. Also do mock interviews and if your school has a career coach (even better if specialized in cases) discuss with them strategies.

I was in a similar boat and a lot of case interviews is just not becoming flustered, knowing the right questions to ask, and having curiosity in your problem solving abilities

Also helps if you can practice with a consultant friend or ask questions. If there is a consulting club at your school reach out to them or your career counselors and they could maybe help you find someone to practice with. Case in Point is great as mentioned above and its most important to understand how to frame your answer/address the problem properly.

I would look at youtube for resources to help, and agree with above - use your career services as much as you can! It's a good amount of time to prep so I wouldn't worry too much

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. It’s definitely going to be a pay cut coming from big law but I do get some nice equity in the company. Is the jump worth it? 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?
