Hi everyone,
I’m currently in the final round of the application process for a Strategy & Operations Consultant role in the financial sector at KPMG, which includes a case interview.
I have some prior experience with case interviews from a previous application at Deloitte, where I unfortunately didn’t pass the final round. The feedback I received was that my structure was not strong enough and that I struggled with mental math under pressure.
Given that, I’d really like to improve and prepare more effectively this time.
I was hoping to get some insights from people who have experience with KPMG (or similar consulting roles):
- What kind of case studies can I expect for a Strategy & Operations role in the financial sector?
- Are they more focused on profitability, market entry, operations, or something else?
- How technical or finance-specific do these cases tend to be?
- And most importantly, what would be the best way to prepare?
Any tips, resources, or personal experiences would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks a lot in advance!
