Hi,
I was told that EY-Parthenon has two rounds of case interviews for 35 minutes each twice per round, so a total of 4 cases. Would appreciate insights on what to expect and how can I prepare specifically for EYP.
Regards.

Hi there,
It depends not only on the location, but also on the role (and rank). If it is “corporate strategy” or “CDD” role, you should expect several cases.
The situation is different if this is a role related to integration work (operational due dilligence, PMO, Post Merger Integration), particularly if it is a technical role (e.g. IT M&A). In this case, you should still give the case interview some thoughts but the bulk of your prepation should be on the fit and behavioral & experience interview.
If it has a case interview, it is more likely to focus on:
I have successfully coached several people for the FIT interviews for EY, and I also have some real retired cases from EY-Parthenon, and I organize coaching sessions around those to candidates applying there, so reach out in case you are interested.

Hi there,
It is always useful if you can share the office in this case, as case questions may differ according to the geography.
I helped several candidates for EYP and know a good number of real questions asked there, please feel free to PM me for more information.
Best,
Francesco
It’s for the UK office. Are all the four cases based on business or some would be fit and behaviour. Asked as well?
Hi there, for entry level positions you should have business cases for all unless they clarify otherwise. I helped a candidate recently for an experienced hire position (Principal level) and in the 5 interviews he got 2 cases (one was a written case) and 3 fit-only interviews. For more information please feel free to PM me
Hi, so if it’s 4cases, all 4 will be business cases??

Hi there, if you have a case you could get (i) a formal business case or (ii) market sizing. Hope this helps
Hey,
I see you are interviewing for the UK office. EYP experiments with their format and I recently helped two candidates succesfully get into the UK office. They both had 2 case interviews- both were in the area of IT M&A.
If you can provide details of the role and your background, I can provide better advise. Feel free to send me a direct message.
Hi, thanks. Are all these business cases, that should I expect?
Hi there,
EYP interviews as candidate-led and includes a fit/behavioral portion as well.
Make sure you leanr how to solve all case types, but focus particularly on the functions/industries that your particular office is known for.
Make sure you're ready with your "Resume walkthrough" "Why EYP" and "Why consulting" answers as well as your personal stories.
Hi, PMed you. Thanks
