One of the three dimensions we grade cases on is humor. Pick the moments that are clearly humorous and crack a joke.

For real? Is the metric formally called Creativity or something? I've thrown jokes into case interviews before since that's how I am, but will make it a must do if you're serious.

You’ll have two 45 minute case interviews (I’m assuming it’s first round)

What level are you KPMg? I am trying to interview as well.

Expect the unexpected

@bcg2, are you being serious. I could see that

Classy, @McK

Bring your A game. Expect a case and be able to deliver logical thinking to break down the problem presented.

It will be excellent interview practice. MBB has no need to hire ex-Big 4, so be sure that you are able to articulate a very specific market niche.

Be positive! Remember MBB always needs great talent. Best of luck!

Hi Fishes,
Need some positive suggestions.

I'm a data analyst(SQL, Python, ETL, Viz) with 6.5yrs exp at LTI(1 Month exp).
I left PWC AC after 6 months of joining because of the nature of dabba work I was getting(80% testing/documentation, 20% technical). Worked for 12+ hrs everyday and wanted to have some wlb.

Now in LTI, life is too peaceful and there's no technical work in current project. I'm getting thoughts like I'm wasting my skills by taking less tech projects at this stage of career.
