Extra points for making a top-down communication video also top-down.

thank you! very informative

Should we not have taken pop growth rate into account while doing calculations? if pop growth rate is say 5%, Number of vaccines required = (number of children <12 years currently) * (1.05)^3 * 90% * 2 doses per child. I think we can't assume population will be constant over the three years

it was a terrible performance

Very Interesting to see. Coming from the south african mining industry making assumptions would've been easy especially when one understands mining regulations in UG shafts. Equally as much if i was asked about the fashion industry my assumptions would be poor. Thank you for the video

I'm a bit older and am currently doing my MBA. One of the things I have to learn is strategy management, which fascinates me a lot. In your protocol at 3:22, it looks to me as if you work like a manager of a soccer club, in this case not to filter out the strengths and weaknesses of the players, but of the employees, in order to then place them in the appropriate positions, or to adjust the positions so that the employees have more fun and motivation in their work and thus bring more strength and better performance, and above all there is less fluctuation through poaching. A very interesting video.

Thanks for tips!

We need a bigger uncutted vesion of slide creation!!

Great video! May I add that using the 'choosing numbers' strategy would be a more time-efficent way of solving many of the numerical questions here. We can use this when the totals are not defined in the question (page. 17 question 6 would be a great example of this: We could simply pick 40 as the total budget, and work out the respective amounts from there)

Our goal is to avoid BCG in any scenario with this type of approach

CBS yikes

This is an amazing video! Thank you a lot!

I think this is average performance, there are a lot of improvement areas and I don't believe a candidate with this performance could pass ,, I also think that the feedback was quite vague and should have been stricter and clearer to REALLY be able to help people ,, because if future candidates would consider this as a reasonable benchmark then this can be a problem for them

Thank you for your work. A lot of value

I would start with 1.what is the capacity of car parks? 2. What is the fees charged per car park? 3. How many stakeholders of taxi providers are engaged with airport? 4. What is the total no. Of traffic of arrivals and departures per day? 5. Whether there is provision of MLCP? Then will start with. Lets imagine, there are 5000 car parks available each day. One car park tkt cost 100 rs for 15 mins. There are 4 taxi providers and each have 15% stakes in market and rest are open taxi providers. Own cars are only 10% of overall car parks each day. There are 60k passengers each day 40k for departure and 20k for arrivals. Departing passengers accounts for 20% of car parks whereas arrival passengers accounts for 40% of car parks. Now lets do maths, 5000*100*24*4 = 4.8 cr per day is the potential revenue. Lets say 40% is the utilization of parking ( dept + arrival) = 40%*4.8 = 1.92 crs. Lets say operating cost per day is 0.8 cr Profit = revenue - expenses = 1.92 - 0.8 = 1.12 cr per day If we increase the traffic to another 20% we can earn profit by 1.5 cr per day apprx. 😊

If i was the interviewer i would have rejected her

All noise no logic

Would be great dump the video how populated charts, or even to share it with edu comments - use of think cell or other plug ins, key formatting, table structures for charts like waterfalls etc. thanks!

Do you have more videos like this one?

Wow, great explanations. Made notes after watching it. What could I use to draw on each slide on Mac as you did?

куда весь контент на русском делся? или это палево для гугла?

очень интересно, но на каком языке говорят, непонятно..

Great video, thank you! The season example is not a perfect ME: in the fashion industry, for example, the Spring-Summer and Fall-Winter seasons do overlap. I guess because weather can still change unpredictably

Marvelous job! So much distilled value in here - is worth watching for anyone struggling with the slides!

Awesome video! Thank you for your content!! In the last part of the video had to pause periodically in order to track closely how you created such beautiful slides :)

Thanks! Very useful

Thanks for the video! Really useful stuff 👍

😉😉😉 Great Work!

Awesome video, great content! "Shein - mobile fast-production fasion business disruptes global fasion retail" OR "Fasion Retial - who moves faster and more digital, gets higher" P.S: Ben Evans is the king of consice slide titles!

Love the video energy!

Great video editing! Nice job

Great work! Thank you!

WTF.....IShe couldn't even think of the population of kids under 12 for the cost for the vaccine in the first place..? seriously?? and also how many % of produced vaccine are available for this country?

Hi, I have a case study coming up. InYour beginning assumptions on IS on a per customer basis, where would I find this info on 10k and 10q. I’m waiting to receive my case study but I just wanted to know how do I go about building assumptions on a unit basis

And just by discussing some solutions and just talking and throwing some numbers around, so that's how these consultants make money...I mean that's it? Nothing else? Just random solutions backed by some data that probably the car parking management already knows about....cmonn!

While increasing number of customers for one segment , you have to decrease it for others considering capacity utilization is 100%. Capacity is constant. How can we target 60% segment not sure. Shouldn't we find a ratio of all segments which gives maximum rev?

Can you use calculator?

Thank you so much, this was sincere, realistic and very helpful case interview. <3

The link pls?

I miss the first video

Something seems very wrong with the audio in this video. I'm hearing duplicated voice tracks that are not in sync (I think), and voice panning from left to right and back again. It's very distracting. I'm not trying give you a hard time, just letting you know that something is off in a big way.

McKinsey uses for mass selection this poor Imbellus system. It eliminates very good candidates, game is very unclear for a time limit. All in all, it does not reflect the real knowledge what candidates need to have.

How did you measure your 70% success rate?

How is the corrected answer mutually exclusive?

This guy made me smile coz I was thinking about MBA with the same "diploma/spravka" mentality :-)
