Pa consulting case interview

Hi,

PA interview cases are more open compared to the typical MBB cases (more focus on public sector and less financial focused). I have some cases available used at PA Consulting from a previous coaching experience.

Feel free to reach out via chat and schedule a free intro call.

Hi Rupali,
What to expect:

• Cases are less rigid than MBB and may be more industry-specific (public sector, health, energy, etc.)
• Focus is often on structuring real-world business problems, prioritizing actions, and showing practical thinking, not just frameworks

How to prepare:

• Practice public-sector and operational cases (e.g., efficiency improvement in healthcare or tech implementation in utilities)
• Emphasize clarity of thought and structured reasoning
• Be ready for follow-up questions that test your adaptability and business judgement

If you’d like help running through a tailored PA-style case, happy to support.

Best of luck!

Hey there 😊

great that you're preparing early – PA Consulting cases tend to be a blend of strategy + implementation, with a focus on structured thinking and practical solutions 🚀

🔎 Here’s what to expect:

• Case style: Often around digital transformation, operations, or growth strategy
• Approach: They love clear logic, prioritisation, and actionable recommendations
• Bonus: Show awareness of tech trends or sector-specific insights (e.g. energy, healthcare, gov)

🧩 Prep tips:

1. Practice MECE structures and 80/20 thinking
2. Focus on business impact + feasibility
3. Be ready to explain your ideas clearly and concisely – that’s a big plus at PA 💬

Happy to do a mock case or fit prep together if you want a confidence boost before the big day! 💪

Best, Alessa

Hi there!

PA consulting cases vary a lot, but they usually fall within the traditional case types in terms of content and approach.

Happy to help you, if a free alignment session sounds good to talk about your situation and my coaching approach, just dm me :)

Best,
