Oliver Wyman

Hi!

There are no additional cases beyond what you can see in the library. 

If you get premium, you'll basically get additional access to ‘Premium’ cases which are labelled this way. 

Honestly, though, I wouldn't be looking for OW-specific cases because they don't exist. OW does mostly candidate-led interviews, so just look for cases of this type from across industries. 

Sharing a few cases of my own for you to practice (they have detailed interviewer notes):

• https://www.preplounge.com/en/management-consulting-cases/interviewer-led-mckinsey-style/intermediate/element-mobile-expands-into-refurbished-phones-mbb-2nd-round-302
• https://www.preplounge.com/en/management-consulting-cases/candidate-led-usual-style/advanced/mbb-first-round-soy-technologies-303
• https://www.preplounge.com/en/management-consulting-cases/candidate-led-usual-style/advanced/mbb-second-round-codewave-employee-turnover-challenge-304

Good luck!
Cristian

Hi there,

Here is the full list of OW cases:

Consulting Cases for Your Case Interview Prep | PrepLounge.com

That said, this is a bit of a misnomer.

It's not like Oliver Wyman gives cases that Strategy& does not. A case is a case. There are infinity possibilities.

The more you worry about “oh boy, what are all the questions OW have asked” the more you're boiling the ocean, memorizing, instead of learning how to think/case like a consultant.

Is like being Real Madrid and saying, “what are all the plays/formations Barcelona have used”.

1) So many - more than you could memorize

2) What they did in the past, doesn't indicate the future

3) Their plays/formations overlap with everyones elses

4) Practice winning and playing games. Period. Don't go in expecting x gameplay. Rather train yourself to be flexible and adaptable for whatever they throw your way!

Hi there,

You can access more cases by upgrading but as Ian said, focus on practicing and learning how to solve any case rather than looking for what will exactly happen during the case interview. 

Consulting interview materials have intellectual property rights and it is almost impossible you do the same case in a real interview that you have practiced before.

Contact a coach here to get trained in solving any case you get.

Happy to keep talking about this in private, just send me a message.

Best,

Alberto

Hello there,

Not really sure about the case offerings of preplounge but if you want Oliver Wyman like cases I would advise you to reach out to consultants / coaches at this company, ideally you would target consultants / coaches from the specific office / region you are applying you for the best insights.

Hope this helps!
 

Hi there,

Q: If I upgrade will there be more Oliver Wyman cases that are not shared for free?

If you mean cases officially issued by Oliver Wyman itself on PrepLounge, I just checked and I could not find additional ones available with the premium subscription at this time.

The advantage of the premium subscription is that it will give you access to the entire case library, where some of the cases have a higher rating than the official OW ones and might be more useful for your prep.

Best,

Francesco
