Hi,
Does anyone have advice on how to best prepare for PE interview cases? I have done practicing on modeling and consulting cases - but I have a sense that the PE cases are in a specific way (given a DD report/info pack and then create model and make analysis?).
Does anyone have any suggestions as on how to approach this area of preparation? I have purchased the WSO guide but it does not have a ton on the cases.
Thanks
