Best way to get a job... | Customer Rating: | | This book got me a job at Mckinsey. It provides insightful cases that make you think and be creative, it gives a detailed guideline for everyone to follow in the interviews and more importantly, it shows what you can expect in the interview process. I also interviewed with BCG (although I preferred Mckinsey) and the book served just as well. Practice a lot with this book; two weeks may not be enough to land you a job at the top consulting firms (1 /2 months is enough, though). Honestly, you may be increasing your chances of getting an offer from the company you wish by some 50% with this book! | Definitely Helped | Customer Rating: | | The book definitely helped me prepare for my case study interview. I was able to confidently answer the interviewer's questions, to the point that he later said I did an outstanding job on the case studies - better than he expected. The advice in the book is actually fairly straight forward and brief, with the majority of the book devoted to case study examples. | The answer to interview madness | Customer Rating: | I am a second year MBA candidate at Columbia Business School and in the thick of interview prep. I have a stack of case prep materials and had no idea to begin. When I asked my friends who have successfuly gone through the process, i.e. they're all heading back to top consulting firms, they said I should stick to Case in Point.
They were right. Case in Point is by far the best case book out there. The book's lighthearted approach helps you dissect cases and the Ivy Case System makes breaking these problems down simple. It helps you organize your thinking to focus on the key aspects of the case- something that interviewers are definitely looking for. I've also been using CQ Interactive on CaseQuestions.com, which lets me practice even when I can't get someone to give me a case.
Case in Point does a great job highlighting things that you might take for granted but that would be really important in an interview to set you apart from the rest of the pack. If you are looking into consulting, this is where you should turn.
| The Best Guide to Help Scale the Consulting Tower | Customer Rating: | When I saw that Marc Cosentino's book is now available to the general public, I cheered! Mr. Cosentino's book is a systematic, thorough, intuitive and unpretentious tool for grappling with the all too over-mystified case interview.
I not only used this book for my own first foray into the business world, but I made frequent trips to the Harvard Career Services Office to buy copies for friends. These individuals ranged in all levels of experience: from Sloan MBA students, to freshly-minted grads and young professionals with a few years experience. With no exaggeration, they all moved into consulting with Mr. Cosentino's help.
Treat this book as your main go-to for case and personal interviews. All the others similarly catchy-titled books, including Ace the Case, are simply its supplements. | Best Case Interview Preparation Ever! | Customer Rating: | After having read some german case interview preparation books I bought this book and I have to say that "Case in Point" is the best preparation for consulting interviews you can get. The cases in this book are absolutely realistic! The solutions that are suggested by the author are very detailed. This book helped me a lot to get some offers of big consulting firms in Germany. |
