I want to receive updates regarding this question via email.

Strategy& M&A Assessment Centre

Hello!

I've got the Strategy& final round assessment centre coming up for the M&A team (as opposed to the corporate strategy team). The format is a structured case, an unstrctured case with some fit questions, and 2 psychometric tests. Was wondering if anyone knows whether there are differences between the corp strat and M&A team assessment centre days for Strat&, and whether the case content is different?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Cheers

Practice With Peers
Preparing for case interviews is a crucial step for success in the consulting industry. These interviews are known for their complexity and the high demands they place on applicants. One of the most effective methods for preparing for case interviews is practicing with like-minded peers. PrepLounge offers excellent opportunities to find suitable interview partners for joint practice with the world's largest case interview community. This article highlights why practicing with like-minded peers is beneficial, how to optimally use PrepLounge's resources, and provides tips on how to get the most out of mock interviews. Why Practicing with Like-Minded Peers for Case Interviews is BeneficialPracticing case interviews with like-minded peers offers a variety of advantages. Firstly, it enables a realistic simulation of the interview situation. Since your interview partners go through the same process, they can authentically simulate cases, which helps you get used to the structure and dynamics of case interviews. Furthermore, like-minded peers can provide valuable and constructive feedback. This feedback is particularly relevant because it comes from people who also understand the challenges of case interviews and can give specific, relevant advice.Another advantage is mutual learning. By observing and analyzing others' approaches, you can refine your own thinking processes and develop new solution strategies. This leads to a deeper understanding and better problem-solving ability. Regular practice with like-minded peers also helps build confidence and reduce nervousness. The more you practice, the more familiar you become with the format and expectations of a case interview, which can significantly improve your performance.
