Interviewing with AlixPartners tomorrow for VP/SVP (7 YOE in boutique strategy firm) in EI practice. Believe first round is a case study but have not been given any insights into the format - and interview was only organised today! Any friendly APs here that can help?

When I did it a few years back they gave you a written case and gave you an hour to prepare to present to 2 consultants

First round is typically interviews. You'll know when it's time for your case interview.

Case is straightforward - we dont try to trick you. We designed a new case to be delivered remotely, vs what we used to do in person (per K1's post).

No that's fine. Once you pass HR screening, we take a modular approach - I.e. it's not sequential. Good luck.

If an employee mentions something disparaging or accusatory about their manager during an exit interview, how would you handle? What happens if what the employee said is slanderous and a “he said/she said” situation? I.e. employee claimed the manager made a disparaging remark about an item of clothing being worn by someone in accordance with their beliefs. If you opt to share the feedback with the manager, would the manager have a legal case against the company or former employee?

I’ve recently started work at a very young tech startup. Coming from a big law background, this was a huge change of pace/environment. I’m having a lot of trouble getting used to how unstructured the startup is. It feels like hire ups give a set of instructions then talk as if they don’t remember, or then decided rules A, B, C and D applies without being clear this was the case. Is this just the general startup environment? If you experienced this before, how did you deal with It?
