Has anyone in this bowl performed a case study as part of the hiring process for a Project Manager? This role will be closely aligned with the Product team at a start-up. My husband was asked to complete and given 4 scenarios to respond to. He has a great strategy for the content but unsure of the best way to present. The document says “present any way you wish.” My guidance would be a deck sent in PDF. Some of the questions are more about his approach to prioritization & others process design

A deck entailing what? Illustrations, data, graphs? Or is the scenario asking him to assess all the issues and considerations in which case a concise memo can work with key points bulleted and use headlines… not everything is ppt. He can do an exec summary in a memo with a ppt. Need more info

I think you are spot on - thank you for your feedback!

For the Case Study they should provide you with what the goal is. My best approach in the past was to present it in a deck as if I were presenting a problem/strategy/solution to an executive or client.
