Experienced hire here just got an invite to BCG second round interview, heard there's going to be a written case. What's the best way to practice/prepare? I've searched the forum and didn't find anything specifically helpful. Any advice is much appreciated.

I don't think there's much you can do about prep or practice. General tips: 1) a lot of it is about time management. the time goes by really quickly. 2) be able to get through exhibits quickly and figure out if you need it / what the major insight is.
how did it go?
haven't done it yet, scheduled in 2 weeks
are you looking to switch from law?
yes
Can not offer any advice on how to practice/prepare, but want to wish you the best of luck with your interview!
