Bcg1/bcg2 thanks for that. As stated earlier I've been having trouble finding cases specific for McKinsey format but have two live practices this week!

M2 I shall take your advice for the day before (except for the whole traveling bit). And luckily I have an exciting alternative if this does in fact not work out. Appreciate the advice!

Thanks a lot OW1. Just made one, burningfishman17@gmail.com

Would be interested in the case packs as well OW1, if you'd be open to sharing - fishcase05@gmail.com

Real life practice with consultants

Live practice. Accept no substitute.

There is a website "I got an offer.com". The McKinsey section content there is pretty close to what we see in actual interviews. You can go through their free videos and the free cases/material there.

Should I specialize in Blockchain or AI? I’m a freshman in a CS degree and I can’t decide. My main argument to choose blockchain is the easy entry with little experience and high salary, I plan on growing my skills during the bear market and get a job once the market recovers. Regarding AI, I find this field fascinating but I feel like it requires a lot of experience, degrees and diplomas.

A quick note about what I’ve experienced, in my decade long career, is the real advantage of MBB or FAANG - it gives you a shot at stretch roles that are outside your expertise. Not all the time or even most of the time compared to better candidates with specific experience for the role but gives you this wildcard shot at a vast array of opportunities.
