Finding "Metals and Mining" Practice Cases

Hi Community,

Does anyone know where I can find practice cases that are specifc to "Metals & Mining"? I have my first round interview for the Expert track with McK in about two weeks and would like to do more industry specific practice cases moving forward. Operations cases are also of interest.

Any thoughts and tips (or even cases) are much appreciated!

Many thanks!

Hi Dre,

While I don't know a specific case book focusing on metals and mining industry, this is the most comprehensive library of case books on 1 page which I am aware of: https://masterthecase.com/case-interview-casebooks-top-mba/

You can download those casebooks and check if some cases correspond to your industry focus. (The casebooks are from couple of years ago - for practice that doesn't matter at all thought)

Hope that helps - if so, please be so kind to give it a thumbs-up with the green upvote button below!

Hey Dre,

I have a number of casebooks that list the case type and industry type of all their cases in a table of contacts. Shoot me a message and I can give you some!

Dre,

My experience as a consultant has primarily been in the Oil & Gas and Metals & Mining Industry. I was a Senior Engagement Manager/Practice Lead in Accenture Strategy leading a team of 45 before I quit. So these 2 industries are pretty close to my experience. Can share some real cases with you if interested. 

Thanks
