How to Conclude a Consulting Case Interview | Tips & Examples

Crafting a successful conclusion in case interviews mirrors the executive summaries in consulting. Through our guide, we provide advice on delivering case study conclusions with clarity: the advantage of taking a brief moment to organize thoughts, the strategy behind effective note-taking during the case, the urgency of highlighting key points without delay, and the importance of a results-focused narrative, all while succinctly discussing potential risks and next steps.
We break down two distinct structures suitable for various case types. The first approach is designed for diagnostic cases, encompassing competitive responses, profitability assessments, and operational inefficiencies. The second is more attuned to cases concerning market entry, investment, M&A, among others. To bridge the gap between theory and real-world application, we've incorporated tangible case interview examples. We finish the video with how you can retain a professional tone, so that your delivery remains consistent and authoritative.

Very useful, thanks

[@bramrahadyta604]

can i use other language (Bahasa Indonesia) to conclude the case study? what do you suggest?

[@Prepmatter]

Some offices conduct case studies in their local language, as opposed to English. You may want to contact HR, or ask a candidate who recently interviewed with the firm for more information!
