Hi Guys,
I was wondering if anyone can help me in responding to these questions: why Kearney? Why strategy consulting?
Hi Guys,
I was wondering if anyone can help me in responding to these questions: why Kearney? Why strategy consulting?
Hi Marco,
Typically for such a question, think about
The story of your life is in progress, how does Kearney fit into that story at this stage- their culture, values, poeple you know there, pipeline of work, attitude towards risk/innovation, reputation, Digital transformation projects etc. You need to do some proper homework & research to convince them that Kearney is indeed the right next step for you.
On Why Strategy Consulting- please search the Q&A forum broadly. This question has been answered at length in many threads. Check this out- https://www.preplounge.com/en/consulting-forum/why-consulting-why-mckinseybcgbain-questions-770
Hi Marco,
This is how I would structure them:
WHY CONSULTING
You may consider any of the following:
You should connect the topics to personal experience to have them sound genuine.
WHY KEARNEY
You may choose three points out of those below to structure an answer:
Whatever topic you choose, you should apply a simple rule of thumb: if you can change the name Kearney with another and the answer still makes sense, it means your answer is not specific enough and you need to provide more details.
Best,
Francesco

Hey there,
Good answers already. I'll add one point:
Whenever it is about 'Why a particular firm', try to come up with a personal story and experience, e.g.:
Be specific with your story points here and drop some names.
Take care!

Hello!
This is one of the 4 families of questions that you find in FIT.
Here you can see a full free example:
If you want to deep dive on the topic, the "Integrated FIT guide for MBB" has been recently published in PrepLounge´s shop (https://www.preplounge.com/en/shop/tests-2/integrated-fit-guide-for-mbb-34)
It provides an end-to-end preparation for all three MBB interviews, tackling each firms particularities and combining key concepts review and a hands-on methodology. Following the book, the candidate will prepare his/her stories by practicing with over 50 real questions and leveraging special frameworks and worksheets that guide step-by-step, developed by the author and her experience as a Master in Management professor and coach. Finally, as further guidance, the guide encompasses over 20 examples from real candidates.
Furthermore, you can find 2 free cases in the PrepL case regarding FIT preparation:
Feel free to PM me for disccount codes for the Integrated FIT Guide, since we still have some left from the launch!
Hi there,
Answering this question, you need to prove that you share the company's same values and goals. It would help if you pointed out why you are a good fit for them and explain that you can see your future within the firm. I would also recommend mentioning the inspiring atmosphere and that you've liked communicating with people who work there.
Moreover, you can point out that you would be happy to develop in such a successful company. However, try not to give typical answers, which usually candidates do. Answer the question according to your personal values and motivation!
To answer specific reason question why this firm - go on their webpage, read how they present themselves, network to get some information from insiders.
Hope that helps!
