Its usually an M&A with all the financials including some working assumptions provided to you to create a full fledged accretion/dilution model. They are seeing whether you can look at target and evaluate all the nuances around acquisition. Also be prepare to present your results in a presentation after the case study.

Currently a paralegal at a small start up financial services company been there for just a little over a year. I wear “multiple hats” but more recently I’ve done a lot of PM work and some BA work. My position title is changing soon but I’m wondering how helpful that would be for wanting to go into PM work at a tech company. Anyone have any career pivot advice? (Also I’m only 1.5yrs old in my career so I’m definitely still new, and I have previous experience as a project assistant).
