I’ve had the pleasure of being mentored by a few different C-Level leaders in my career and everyone had being prepared in common. Even for our little half hour meetings they would prep for it and make sure that they were ready for the discussion. Being prepared is respectful to the other parties and is necessary to do your best

Nothing wrong with over preparing. You’re going to kill it!

It all depends on your comfort level. Some folks could need double or triple that time to succeed

If I was really qualified I wouldn’t have to prepare so much. Do you agree?

Agree, you shouldn’t really have to prepare at that level.

OP, 2 of the big 4 recruiters told me they cannot do promotion hires and can hire only at my current level. Is this a big 4?

It was Accenture

I’d be surprised if there was a case interview at manager level. That’s usually reserved for more entry level

🤷‍♀️
