<p>I applied for a consulting organization, and it will be a case study interview.</p>
<p>the question will be along the lines of "how will company x increase its profits?"</p>
<p>i'm supposed to talk about some over arching issues, showing that i have a big picture understanding of the situation. After discussing some issues, i might be given a handout on statistics of its local competitors.</p>
<p>From here i will be expected to narrow down your answer based on the given information.</p>
<p>At the end of the interview, i will be expected to incorporate all you've discussed in the case and summarize my conclusion. </p>
<p>"We want to see your ability to identify a few key issues from a large range of data."</p>
<p>I have one day to prepare- all help appreciated!</p>
