Hi there,

Q: What’s a good case I should ask others to interview me on (Can be on or off of preplounge website)? What’s a good difficult case that I can interview someone else on? 

1) On PrepLounge you should go to Resources → Case Library on the top bar:

2) Once there you can filter by Advanced as shown below:

3) You can also sort by rating as shown below:

Below you can find an example of an Advanced case I created, if you want you can find a few more on my profile here.

Good luck with the prep!

Hi there,

Most casebooks have the level of difficulty listed! One of my favorite tough ones is Enerforce in the Stern casebook.

Please also remember that a good caser is more important than a good case!

Finally, generally, you should be given a case by someone that they have already done. If they haven't seen it before, they're not going to do as good a job as if they're giving you a case they had to do themselves.

Hello,

Try looking for some casebooks from business schools that have sorted cases by difficulty, by industry and by capability. This will be immensely helpful to you. 

If you really want to up your interviewing game, consider doing mock cases with expert coaches that have been used in real-life interviews.

All the best!

Hey there,

Great answers already.

I'd like to add one thing:

The quality of the interviewer and feedback you receive matters as much as the difficulty of the case. Make sure to practice only with partners who prepare beforehand (know the case well, the different tangents, the math and different approaches to it, etc.) and who have somewhat of an understanding of how a case interviewee is evaluated. 

Cheers,

Florian
