The case interview is the hardest part of it. I’d dedicate a month to prep on the cases and go through 14-20 with another person over the course of that time

They’re the same as any other interview. I was a lateral hire, 3x rounds of 2x interviews, standard strategy cases.

like

Same process. Potentially a bit easier in terms of case judgement, especially if you have deep expertise in an area of need, they are hiring you for your expertise but also want to ensure you're structured in your thinking, rigours in your analysis and always sythensis highlighting the "so what". So that 1m x1m you called 100billion wouldn't end you lol. So If you do those things above well then a few practise with folks that know how to judge a case at the mbb/tier 2 level would suffice, else, a lot more practise. Timing is dependent on individual abilities, materials and support resources and amount of time available for practise. Goodluck!

Ex-consultant now in marketing. Used to be an avid follower here and got great insights on companies when trying to exit consulting so thought I’d try here for advice. Outside of FAANG, what are good large CA-based tech companies that provide good pay, WLB, and culture? DD has great people and WLB, but pay is low and you’re not given the tools and resources to succeed + truly make an impact. Google and Apple are ideal but need backups. Like is Salesforce still good? A company along those lines.
