What does it mean when firms say "we want to see how you think"
In PE/HF case study interviews, what do you mean when you say "we want to see how you think"? Are you expecting some kind of outside-the-box thinking (which is hard to achieve given the lack of experience)? Are you looking at the logic in their argument?
Same with when firms say they are looking for not only econ/STEM majors but also poli sci/humanities majors because supposedly they would think "differently". How much of that claim is valid?
It's how you approach the answer.
For example - investing in a residential solar panel installer. Assuming financials are fine, business wise thinking about it as renewable energy strong industry tailwinds, pass through etc. etc. would be a pretty poor answer if you stopped there.
If you touched on it being basically a commoditized roofing company with low barriers to entry - answer gets a bit better. Lastly including regulatory, ie thinking through residential solar tax credits and change in administration and those dynamics can make the answer much more well rounded.
+1 SB. Good answer
