Ex-MBB, Experienced Hire; I will teach you not only the how, but also the why of case interviews

1. Can I put this candidate in front of the client? Will the candidate say something stupid?

2. Can this candidate develop a rapport with others (analyst level customer, senior client, my own team)?

3. (optional) Am I comfortable this candidate can crack a case and get to the insights - particularly if the 1st round performance was just okay
