Preparing business cases isn´t just about memorizing steps and frameworks. It is about building the skills needed to approach problems in a structured, data-driven way.
In a case interview, they can even ask you what you would do if you won the lottery.

Think strategically about networking. Begin with those around you (family and friends), then continue with those who can make introductions, and finally cold-contact consultants.
When cold-contacting consultants on online platforms like LinkedIn, you need to understand that networking is a volume game. You need to reach out to 20 people to get one answer.
