Case interview for TS role at PwC, need some tips. I’m expecting a QoE analysis - DD adjustments, EBITDA, D&DL analysis, NWC analysis & adjustments. Can anyone provide any insight into types of adjustments to look out for and how I can impress?

As someone who just went through the process at PwC the case study was only about 30 min of the interview so you will most likely not have time to cover everything mentioned in the case. Definitely know what some common types of adjustments are and be able to explain your thought process for identifying them. It’s more about demonstrating how you problem solve than getting all the answers right. Good luck!
