Whats the best way to prep for BCG cases? It seems hard to find quality materials or role play for candidate-driven cases. Mckinsey interviews seem way easier to prep for because each question mostly stands on its own. Any ideas?

Preplounge for case partners, it's a global platform that's well known so you can usually find partners for any time you want. Preplounge also has its own library of cases, though it's a hit and miss. Consulting club case books are your best bet - Darden, Columbia, Wharton are some of the good ones. You should be able to find PDFs online, search by name and year (eg. Darden case book 2019). If you're part of a consulting club, you'll find resources there as well.

I used rocket blocks to find case partners and just googled mba casebooks for materials. Was an experienced hire so didn’t have biz school resources to use

Round or exact numbers on banners/LPs? I was curious about this since in negotiations for example or pricing it's better to have the exact number. But if you have a case study, for example, is it better to say "Client X increased their revenue to 1,000,000 ARR" instead of "Client X increased their revenue to 987,500 ARR" ? Anyone has seen any impact on conversion rates?

Throughout my career, I have worked at both “traditional” and “digital” shops. My current agency would fall under traditional but also offers digital services. Our process, roles and skillsets seem way outdated but I wasn’t sure if it was just my opinion or if this is just how it works. For example, we have no CTO or tech leads. Our digital producers feel more like project managers than actual producers. Account Management is just traditional, no real digital knowledge. Feels layered and dated.

Read that McK is paying 2K higher than BCG this year which means BCG will probably raise again next year to at least match. However, they can’t just copy McK with 2K to match because that would look bad so they’ll have to beat it again. Then McK and Bain will follow. Barring a devastating recession, I’m guessing this means MBB is all getting raises again next year?
