Hello,
I have a case interview in 2 weeks; what is the most efficient way to prepare?
I have read case in point frameworks previously and done a few cases. I am concerned on how to prepare given that I have a full time job. Any tips?
Thank you
Hi there
If you know the theory already, I would suggest the following:
If you want to spend few hours only and cover everything you need, I developed a program precisely for that. You can click on the following link to learn more:

After this program, you will know exactly what to expect in your interview, what to work on, and how to focus on the real differentiator to land an offer.
Please feel free to PM me for any questions.

Hi there,
Let me repeat what the others have said: reschedule. 2 weeks is not enough time having not prepared at all (reading case in point and doing a few cases means almost 0 preperation).
In parallel, hire a coach! They're the best way to get a tailored preparation plan that works for you!
I agree with this advice wholeheartedly. — on Nov 21, 2020
Thank you Ian and everyone for your advice. What is the extra time I should ask for? 2 more weeks? — on Nov 21, 2020
Hi there,
I totally agree here with what my colleagues say - do not rush. Reschedule instead.
Case preparation is not a fast two-week process - it really needs a certain amount of time and concentration available. You
Call HR and explain the situation. It is a common thing that interviews can be rescheduled.
Do you need any further help?

Hi,
If you have only 2 weeks, you just started, and you have a full-time job - Please reschedule. There is absolutely no penalty for rescheduling. The recruiter is there to help you, not to make you fail.

Reschedule. Seriously.
Hi,
I confirm it is very challenging. If you can be fully dedicated to case preparation feel free to text me to know my war plan to approach a last-minute full immersion and reach your best

In order to repeatedly demonstrate prerequisite skills under the pressure of a real case interview, you need to learn the basics and practice cases.
