What is a strategy leader?

First round is very easy to pass

All the responses on Glassdoor say the interview is extremely difficult...

Market sizing and strategy 30 min a piece, take your time be thorough with your bucket selections. It’s about 10% of first round IVers get to second round

Wow only 10%. Ok I’ll do my best ha

10%? That seems kinda low. Interview lots?

When’s the normal cycle?

School

? Like end of school...how many associates do they bring in a cycle?

Depends but it’s on campus recruiting. So you are not in school, don’t worry about that lane.

What schools do they recruit from most?

Top 15, maybe 20. All the ones you expect. They pay hella good too for mba hire

Best schools in whatever region the office is located

I did really well on the market sizing part but didn’t know the formula for break even point...anyone thinks that’s a big deal?

Tell me your craziest experience working with a TV network. Here comes mine:

I'm American, but my family is mostly Colombian. I was told my aunt and cousins would come here for 2 weeks. I discovered they were going to be paid to appear in a famous Hispanic TV show, where a "judge" receives a case, hears the plaintiffs and defendants and renders a verdict. But of course, it's all fake and payed 😂 turns out she wanted me to go there (even though I don't work for that TV network) so she's sure she'll be paid at the end of the show. Wth did I just do.
