"Shakal zyada kharab hai ya content?" - read an Instagram comment on one of my reels. I started posting on Instagram recently, excited to experiment with 60-second videos. However, that one sentence shook me to the core. I couldn't open the application for weeks. Fearing what else I might see in the comments section that would rattle my confidence. My mom, noticing the evident anxiety, ascertained what had happened. The next day, she shared snapshots of several accounts where the creator was being bashed, for no good reason. She told me that even if a single professional or college student makes the right professional decision after watching my videos, then it's worth the effort. Irrespective of the number of likes, or the nature of the comments. That small lesson changed my worldview on content creation forever.

One of our mentees who got into Deloitte had an unconventional case interview. And the only reason she was able to tackle the case was that she had practiced a wide variety of cases problems in mock practice. The reason this is important is that some consulting aspirants find their comfort zone in certain types of case problems. It can be profitability, market entry, or pricing. And then practice only those types of cases. But consulting interviews are as random as it gets. It’s better to get a reality check and improve in front of your case partner than the interviewer. For you to do that, I am sharing a case problem with you below, it's a little different than typical cases. Read the problem statement, see how you would go about it, and then go through my approach.

80% of those who interview with consulting firms are rejected after their case rounds. That's because you can't game a consulting case - the problem is abstract, and the solution is highly subjective. The only way to get better is to practice good quality cases consistently. For you to do that, I am sharing a case problem below. Read the question, see how you would approach it, & then go through my framework. Happy Learning!

Stop obsessing over cases if you are a consulting aspirant. Cases are critical but not the only component asked in interviews. Before you get to a case round, recruiters typically ask you guesstimates. So if you goof up in a guesstimate question, or add an extra 0 in your final answer, or miss an important bucket, then you won't even get to the case interview. To make sure that this doesn't happen with you, I am sharing a guesstimate below for you to practise. Read the problem statement, see how you would go about it, and then go through my approach.
