I attended the AT Kearney case interview workshop the day before the Accounting for Managers exam. I made the right decision to attend the workshop, instead of mugging Accounting at home. The session was very helpful and I am so greatful AT Kearney consultants took time out of their busy schedule to come and give us the workshop in MBS.
Two AT Kearney consultants gave an introduction about the company, the kind of projects they handle and the career prospects in the company. After that, we were spilt into groups of 7 to 8 people and we were led by AT Kearney consultants on how to handle case interviews. We were given a case to analyse and we were led through the case, with each of us contributing our ideas. It was my first case and I learnt a lot from the session. We were told that case interview performance usually gets better with more practice. I learnt how to think through the case and learnt what to do & what not to do in an interview. Planning is very important and we should always take time to think through the case thoroughly before rushing to answer it. Another important point is to answer the question and not to suggest ideas that won't improve the situation. It seems pretty straight forward but people still tend to forget this point.
I am so glad I attended the workshop!
