Can someone please recommend how to prepare for “case study” segments of interviews at consultant-friendly funds? Feel like this is the one part missing for me before on-cycle kicks off

Highly recommend reviewing the WSO course on this. Plenty of cases you can prep up but I’d literally write up why a certain LBO is a good investment or not outside of purely hurdle rate(s) and returns

Thank you so much! Is this a paid course? Already purchased Peak Frameworks so hesitant to spend more money..

I’ve got wallstreetprep and biws, willing to trade for PF

Hello Guys,

Currently I am working as People Partner (Human Resource) with Byju's at Kolkata office and I am actively looking to shift to Bangalore.

I had a first interview last Tuesday with Amazon, which I think went well, although I still haven't heard back 6 days later and then got an OOO annual leave msg and a no response when I chased up the named colleague today. Is this typical behaviour others have experienced when dealing with the big tech company recruiters? I found Google and Facebook recruiters to be efficient and TikTok so-so, if not a little slow, but 6 days+ seems poor.
