In Reply To: Hi there, I was wondering about whether it is advisable to do a number of trial interviews at companies you don't really want to work for before having a session with your favourite employment prospect. I mean, practicing cases etc. in a real interview obviously makes you more experienced in dealing with this kind of situation, but could this also backfire heavily if your true intention becomes obvious.
Message: I think you might end up working at some company that is not your top choice. Getting into MC is a real odds game and the odds are heavily against getting into McK or BCG. Also, the interviews DO help from company to company.
