If you haven’t prepped and your interviews are this week, then good luck... Not sure if we can help you if you didn’t plan ahead

Check out the interview prep section on mck.com. Includes good example cases. Good luck on the interview - it's more about the way you think than prepping!

(though a certain amount of prep definitely helps)

Hi,
My current company is going out of business next week. I am rushing to get my next job lined up (probably won’t happen in time but I’m trying my best). My question is: should I be honest about why I’m looking for a new job? Is it wrong to not share this info during my interviews? Is this situation going to affect my interview process somehow? Please share your thoughts and wisdom! Thanks!

Is there any advantage to telling a company you are interested in working for in the future where you decided to accept an offer from? Or does it not matter?

Company B just sent me a request for interview and I want to keep the door open with Company B but they were just very late in extending an interview.
