Hello, I’m writing to ask for some advice. I have a final (R2) coming up for the OC&C summer associate position. I’d really appreciate any insights you can offer on what to expect during the interview process with partners.

Hey! Congrats first of all!
In partner interviews at OC&C you can expect a mix of fit and case, often with a stronger focus on commercial thinking and sharp structuring. The case might feel more discussion driven and less guided, so they test how you think rather than whether you know standard frameworks. Be very hypothesis driven and clear in your communication.
On the fit side, partners care a lot about motivation and whether you would be a strong cultural fit, so be crisp on why OC&C, why strategy, and why you. Expect deeper follow ups on your decisions and impact, similar to PEI style probing.
BR! Alessa
