ÜBER DIESE EPISODE
Most case interview prep is written for US interviews. If you’re recruiting for a European office, you’ll walk into a different interview than the one you practiced.
Laura Ackerman worked at McKinsey and BCG and has coached European candidates for 4 years. She breaks down where US prep falls short in European consulting interviews: the case formats, the case topics, and how conversational the fit interview gets.
And she shares how one client with a diplomacy background landed a McKinsey London offer after 10 coaching sessions in 1 month.
