What is most efficient way to practice a case with partners who don't have consulting background or relevant experience? Do you just give them Casebooks and ask them to choose random one?

You’re better off watching YouTube videos and doing drills tbh

Thanks for clarification! That makes sense!

If you can’t find someone that knows what they’re doing to give you a case then you might benefit from paying a coach. It will cost a few hundred dollars but if you get the offer the ROI is great

I know people that used preplounge and liked it. You can see their ratings before you book them. I’ve never used it myself

Best bet is record it and critique yourself. But you’ll need to minimize the need for your interviewer to go off script.

Overall, this method is suboptimal.

Taking a new role in industry after 2 years in public.
