F500 FLDP Case Study

So I have a final round interview at the headquarters of a f500 for an FLDP program next week. When I got the schedule I noticed that I have a case type interview where I will get 2 hrs to prepare and then a half hour to present. I have no idea what this might entail as I expect it to be completely different than any type of consulting case. Anyone have any idea and/or suggestions?

 

What company is this for?

Any idea on how specifically it will differ from the traditional case study?

In terms of consulting it will not be the same. the FLDP role is not client facing. You will be switching between general accounting, FP&A and program finance. Program finance is the most client facing thing you will do.

If I had to guess about an actual case study it will probably be something like "You are in situation X with project manager Y. How will you work together to resolve X and produce Z"

Ok thanks. I guess maybe I should assume numbers and accounting statement type stuff?

ya, it will be fairly basic since the majority of candidates are recent grads
