Only advanced candidates with scheduled interviews please

I'm not looking for list of questions.

Hello!

Sure thing, feel free to subscribe!

Furtheremore, you can always leverage the "Integrated FIT guide for MBB", that has been recently published in PrepLounge´s shop (https://www.preplounge.com/en/shop/tests-2/integrated-fit-guide-for-mbb-34)

It provides an end-to-end preparation for all three MBB interviews, tackling each firms particularities and combining key concepts review and a hands-on methodology. Following the book, the candidate will prepare his/her stories by practicing with over 50 real questions and leveraging special frameworks and worksheets that guide step-by-step, developed by the author and her experience as a Master in Management professor and coach. Finally, as further guidance, the guide encompasses over 20 examples from real candidates.

Furthermore, you can find 2 free cases in the PrepL case regarding FIT preparation:

Hi Rafic,

I would do a service on my colleagues and other experts here on Pltaform that the best resources in order to prepare yourself for FIT questions are the resources provided here by some of the experts.

So you can visit experts profile and purchase them directly, or alternitavely you can set up session 1-2 with any of us in order to get deeper insight and practice the personal FIT and also the case.

Wish you best of luck,

André

I believe Clara (another coach from this site) is doing a seminar on this topic. I think it would be a great starting point for you
