What office did you get an interview in?
It can vary widely (e.g., a few of mine were about a music conservatory in Europe and a EV company)
But was it mainly ur basic issues? Like profit, entry, etc? Or was it quirky like “what key factors should we consider if we sell the statue of liberty”
Can confirm that last year’s R1 had a quirky “what factors might cause XYZ Southeast Asian country to have low school attendance”
