Hi,
I'm interviewing for a Sustainability Manager role at a PE firm focusing on carve-outs and operational transformation. I'm anticipating case interviews specifically centred around sustainability due diligence during investment decisions and operational sustainability improvements. I haven't been able to find fitting cases for this in the case library, can someone point me to any cases that may be relevant so that I can practice?
Thanks
Hi Will,
First of all, congratulations on the invitation!

Hi there,
While the interviews for this role likely come with specialized cases in this area, your interviewers are more interested in your
Problem deconstruction and creativity (Framework and brainstorming)
Analytics (Charts and math)
Communication
Hence, the question is not “what cases you should prepare” but “what are the right skills to learn and how.”
You want to build the skillset needed for a consultant already before the interviews to get the chance of an offer.
The industry and context the case is placed in and your knowledge about it has about 10% impact on how you will perform. Your problem-solving, analytics, and communication have around 90% impact so know where to place your focus.
On top of that, you can still read industry briefs or even create them yourself with AI to learn about current trends and hot topics.
Cheers,
Florian
