Should I answer an case interview question in two directions? For example, I saw this at a casebook.
"Do you think that grocery retailers would be interested in pre-seasoned
chickens from XXX company?"
Sample answer:
Sample “YES” response:
Labor Cost Reduction: Meat
department workers; don’t need to
spend time seasoning the chickens.
Economies of Scale: Seasoning
centralization; lower cost.
Product Consistency: Centrally
managed; able to spend more on R&D.
Sample “No” response:
Loss of Differentiation: Grocery chains
differentiate by value-added .
Attune to Local Needs: Likely to be
better at gauging consumer tastes.
Increases Inventory & SKUs.
Should I answer both direction at a case interview or I should ONLY go for one direction?
