Message Name: Case Interviews for non-traditional hires
Date Posted: 05/20/2003
Message: I've got upcoming interviews at BCG, McKinsey, and others. I'm a non-traditional (PhD with no business background). Does anyone know to what extent non-traditionals are expected to be familiar with business concepts/terms in the cases (e.g., ROE, etc)--or will it be more general strategy to test our analytical ability, etc? Thanks for any pointers. Also, do 1st round interview cases tend to be easier than callbacks, as a rule?
