596: Failing to Provide Sufficient Case Detail (Case Interview & Management Consulting classics)


Listen Later

For this episode, let's revisit a Case Interview & Management Consulting classic where we speak about case details. Candidates are typically surprised to hear they have been declined for not providing sufficient details in a case interview. It usually surprises them since they believe they have provided more than enough case information detail. The difference comes down to how consulting firms define "detail". They are looking for facts and the relationships between issues, while candidates tend to speak in broader terms and are not very good at identifying and explaining the linkages between issues.
