How long is too long for a case interview? Next round is an M&A take home that they said should take less than 20 hours. I’ll have 3 days to do it, but it sounds excessive upfront

I’m thinking of just dropping out of this interview process now because of the sheer time commitment for something not guaranteed, but it also seems like a cool opportunity. What do you guys think?

I feel you there, this would certainly piss me off, but you do have to weigh the potential. It would be nice if there were less hoops to jump through when applying in general.

Depends on how badly you want it. Competition may be lower if lots of other candidates drop out of this stage

Has anyone been in a similar situation? I got referred to a job that otherwise I would be considered under qualified for. It seems the interviews have gone well & I think I am one good interview away from an offer (fingers crossed 🤞).

However, if I get it I’m worried that I do not have enough experience to be successful. I know that every role has a learning curve, but I was wondering if others have been in this spot and how they were able to find success if they took that role?
