Hi currently in the S& PEVC practice so can give insight. The cases in the interview aren't the typical structured interview. It's mainly based on previous deals and projects and the interview is a back and forth discussion with no right answer. Just want to understand thoughts, approach, and how you convey your message

Thank you. This is very helpful
