Insights into CVS Health’s case study?

I am currently preparing for a case study with CVS Health and I cannot find any information on what to expect. Does anyone have any insights into what I could expect? It’s for a growth strategy role so I assume it would be less quant and more qual focused?

Hi there,

Great that you’re preparing in advance — CVS Health case studies for growth strategy roles typically reflect the real-world business challenges the team is solving across healthcare, retail, and digital services.

While you’re right that the case may lean more qualitative, don’t completely rule out quantitative components. Here's what you can generally expect:

Case Focus:
Past candidates have seen cases around:

  • Launching a new service (e.g. a virtual care offering or pharmacy product)
  • Improving access or retention in a specific customer segment (e.g. Medicare Advantage or commercial clients)
  • Market expansion strategy — geographic or service-line based
  • Integrating recent acquisitions (like Aetna or Signify Health)

Structure to prepare for:
You’ll want to be comfortable with:

  • Market sizing (at a high level)
  • Customer segmentation and value proposition design
  • Competitive landscape analysis
  • Go-to-market strategy and pricing levers
  • Internal capabilities: assessing CVS's operational, digital, or partner readiness

Expectations:

  • Less pressure on math drills than in consulting firms, but you still need to be structured and articulate.
  • The interviewer will likely assess how you think about growth levers across a complex, highly regulated industry.
  • They may also test your understanding of healthcare trends (e.g. value-based care, digital transformation, retail clinics, payer-provider convergence).

Happy to help you prep – feel free to reach out.

Best,
Evelina

Hi there,

First of all, congratulations on the progress in the application process with CVS Health thus far!

I would be happy to share my thoughts on your question:

  • First of all, contrary to what other coaches have said, I would strongly advise you to reach out to the recruiter as soon as possible to be certain. There is no point in relying on hearsay and assumptions for your preparation.
  • Moreover, while your own assumptions may be correct, they may also turn out to be wrong. Unless you have clear evidence, I would strongly advise you not to make assumptions and base your preparation on them.

You can find more on this topic here: How to succeed in the final interview round.

If you would like a more detailed discussion on how to best prepare for your upcoming interviews, please don't hesitate to contact me directly.

Best,

Hagen

When in doubt, always go back to the recruiter and ask them. 

That's what they are there for.

And there's nobody, on any platform, that can tell you more accurately what the format of the interview will be like. Especially since it differs from firm to firm, office to office, and role to role. 

Once that's clear, reach back and we'll be happy to provide a perspective. 

Best,
Cristian
