In the Case-Interview, if the client is of an industry which I personally don't support, should I tell the interviewer?
I was doing a practice case, for a cigarette company, where the interviewer specifically asked if I have a problem with consulting a cigarette company. I definitely would not want to work on such a project, but for certain industries, I would be unsure if I would want to consult them or not (e.g. oil companies, certain countries, pharma in the US). Should I state this in an MBB interview if it comes up, or would this give me a disadvantage, as sometimes you cannot choose your client?
(The case book said it would be a disadvantage, even if one says one would blacklist a cigarette company)
