I recently did a first-round interview at MBB and I got as a feedback that I should push more my cases and lead them, what does it mean, as the EM had no more time and was a really short call and it was all he said.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
You lead the case through the structure you've prepared by
You should be always pushing further in order to find a root cause while constantly structuring. The general algorithm:

Hi,
It is a bit difficult to say without more detail.
I could say that during the interview you relied a bit too much on the interviewer to arrive at the resolution of the case without having a "plan" in your head. Thus, without the interviewer's help and suggestions you wouldn't be able to go on.
But that's just what I can assume from these phrases, what do you think didn't go well in your interview? Maybe we can understand the EM words starting from that.
Hi Anonymous,
"Pushing" the case usually means you need to sit more in the driver seat, thus driving the case forward your self and not only "passively" answering some questions the interview had.
If you think about a real client/consultant interaction, it's also that you need to drive forward the whole process of solving the clients issue and lead the discussions into the right direction - and it's not that you are merely answering the client's question.
Hope that helps!
