Hello,
If you're not super clear on what the case interview will look like, it's worth reaching out to HR to ask if they can provide you with any more details! Short of that, I'd expect a standard case interview, and would practice a wide range of cases to prepare.

Hi there,
Horváth is a german consulting but with a global reach by now.
I've coached candidates for the firm before.
In terms of what you can expect, the process is similar to most other firms, in the sense that they have a case component and and personal fit component.
The cases can be from any industry or function, so I would recommend that you practice broadly.
Feel free to reach out if you want more info specifically catered to Horváth.
Aside from this, I'd recommend you apply more broadly to maximise your chances of getting at least one offer in the industry. You can use the following guide to build an application strategy:
Then, if you want to work on structuring and brainstorming in preparation for the interviews, I would recommend the following resource:
Best,
Cristian
