Diese Frage ist schreibgeschützt, da sie mit folgender Frage zusammengefügt wurde: What FIT questions have u seen in McK interviews ? Trying to make a list .Thanks.
how is the best way to prepare for PIE ? And how important is to perform well at them? I read people commenting about using the right structures and the right stories, additionally justifying well why did you choose them but I do not know what kind of answers they are going to expect and what is the kind of candidate profile that they are looking for. Thank you very much

Hey anonymous,
Francesco already gave you some ideas on how to prepare...so let me just address the following point: "how important is to perform well at them?"
