Hi Guys,
I have an interview coming up with Monitor Paris office and I am struggling to find resources (written cases) to prepare from.
Can you suggest some casebooks that have data heavy cases?
Thank you.

Hi,
It's a very standard written case interview.
I've uploaded some samples here:

The best way to prepare is the following:
The appropriate structure for BCG written case is (However you should check the format with the company you are applying to):
Slide 1: Context, Objective, Recommendations
Slide 2-4: Analysis (Usually 1 slide with a table, 1 slide with graphs and 1 slide with pros and cons)
Slide 5: Next steps or risks & mitigation
Good luck!
Hello!
Any casebook would do it actually, try with the usual ones form Ivy League prep. Remember that the skillset tested is the same than in the "usual" cases, hence, all the practice you may have done totally plays in your favor.
One important point to add is the need to be very 80-20, structured and to the point, since the prep time is very short, so we need discipline with the analysis to have enaugh time to prep the communication strategy.
There are many many entries in thsi same Q&A regarding written cases, hence, I would recommend you to look with the keywords "written case"
Hope it helps!
Cheers,
Clara
