Case interview prep for dummies

When I first heard about case interviews, I was confused - I had no idea what exactly is a case interview, how is it different from regular interview, not to mention how to prepare for it and obviously, made a lot of mistakes during the process.
This is the video for everyone going through this process for the first time, everything that I wish I knew back then.

Thank you for emphasizing the "don't memorize frameworks" advice. In another video I watched, they said to memorize frameworks while also emphasizing coming up with your own which is probably gonna split one's attention, focus, and energy.

[@2yuanpodcast]

Wonderful introductory video. Very informative. Thank you for sharing my friend.

[@in.everywhere]

this vid helped me a lot in consolidating my spirit. Thank you!

[@lesterchiu694]

would love a deep dive on how to stand out during the interview!

[@saufari]

Helpful video as per usual. Thank you!

[@adolfyoshuamarbun2904]

Thanks for the insightful video! Really love it

[@caroromerovlogs]

Amazing detailed advice, I really appreciate it Angie. Thanks. It makes me hopeful that I have a chance to succeed, since I suck at remembering non useful / practical stuff. 😅

[@missangielu]

Good luck!

[@AJ-et3vf]

I woke up this morning with two emails in my inbox, one saying I have a case interview in 15 days and the other offering a case interview course. I had no idea what a case interview was when I woke up and I'm going to sleep with pages and pages of note taking and material to study like a mad woman for the following few days.

[@abdullahab2292]

how it went :)

[@JohnTube2K]

I work for a Big 4 and never got asked for a case interview. Did three rounds, passed them, got hired.

Are you in a strategy/management consulting role or accounting/finance role?

This is by far the only video that really helps me understand what is a consulting case interview and how to prep for one @missangielu ! I'm thinking to apply for exactly McKinsey but tbh my progress is not so good. I blanked every time I heard a new prompt and problem statement. I'm just too confused as to where to start structuring my thoughts. Any tips?

[@cocoarecords]

Right in time

[@missangielu]

Good luck!

[@JC-xi3rm]

Are there any books/materials you would recommend for preparing for the case interview as an undergraduate student?

[@missangielu]

depends where you are in the process, if you have time, it's always good to read business news to develop your biz sense (i.e. biz sectors in financial times). I'm also in the process of developing a course, so feel free to sign up to the waitlist here at missangielu.com

[@CharlesIvansfather]
