"I felt really confident after my McKinsey interview - this book's cases prepared me perfectly! They were very similar to the ones I received in my first and final round interviews." -McKinsey Consultant, Wharton MBA Candidate "I had very little time before my next BCG interview. This book provided me with plenty of practice that I could do by myself. After working through these cases, I felt excited going into my interviews." -BCG Associate, Experienced Hire "These cases were much higher quality than those found in other case books. The explanations were detailed and thorough and I got to practice thinking like a true consultant." -Bain Consultant, Stanford UndergraduateAlso visit HackingTheCaseI for a one-week online crash course to pass your upcoming interview. Review: A lot of great practice problems to hone your case solving skills - I have read multiple case books (Victor Cheng, David Ohrwall), and I realize a lot of authors tend to write unnecessary stuff. As helpful the intent might be, it actually leads to more confusion on the part of the reader. After having read Taylor's first book (Hacking the case), I have been a huge fan of the simplicity and crispness with which he can convey his ideas. However, I realized that the first book was slightly lacking in practice problems. This book seems to be the second part of his series: a book with multiple problems in both specific topics so that you can deep dive on your weak areas, or full blown practice cases. Specific topics include: - Framework questions - Market sizing - Brainstorming - Interpreting charts - Business judgement - Profitability Apart from the above, there's 15 full blown cases, ranging from easy to hard difficulty so that you can track your progress. This really helped me hone my skills and comparing it with his solution helped me find gaps in my solving set. I would recommend doing 1-2 cases initially and check your level and then do more after you have done deep dives on each specific topic that you want to address. Note: One downside though of the series format is that in case you are learning concepts from the basics, I would recommend purchasing his first book (Hacking the case interview). Apart from the above, if you're looking for solid practice, look no further, this is the book for that! This book made me confident in my ability to hack cases for my consulting interview with top tier firms (fingers crossed). Review: Choose this instead of Hacking the case interview - This book is not a comprehensive guide/ strategy to get into a consulting company. Get this book to facilitate your learning with the cases shown. I bought both books in this series, and I feel that this one covers many of the topics in the other one with many more examples for you to practice. There's varying difficulties of cases to go through which is ideal for when you are starting out or if you are more experienced. I would highly recommend pairing this book with free online material!

A lot of great practice problems to hone your case solving skills
I have read multiple case books (Victor Cheng, David Ohrwall), and I realize a lot of authors tend to write unnecessary stuff. As helpful the intent might be, it actually leads to more confusion on the part of the reader. After having read Taylor's first book (Hacking the case), I have been a huge fan of the simplicity and crispness with which he can convey his ideas.

Excellent Examples and Diverse Cases
When used in conjunction with 'Hacking the Case Interview', 'The Ultimate Case Interview Workbook' provides an excellent foundation for case interview practice. While I had also purchased and read Case Interview Secrets and Case In Point, Taylor Warfield's books do a much better job providing examples and offering different/updated combinations of frameworks. For people who learn best by reading through example problems and attempting practice problems, this book provides a wide breadth of cases that will give you a good taste of what you may be asked in interviews. Using these two books as a foundation, I was able to land 5 job offers from MBB, the big four, and boutique life sciences firms. In my 33 interviews, I would say that ~25 of them had cases that were similar/relevant to those in 'The Ultimate Case Interview Workbook'. I did not get a single case that was like the examples at the end of Case In Point (although those were still good to practice). I highly, highly recommend this for anyone going through the case interview process.

Bon livre qui va droit au but
Livre pas forcément adapté pour les gens débutant de zero mais une fois avec quelques éléments d'entraînement sur les cases c'est un très bon livre qui récapitule bien et va droit au but, beaucoup de bons éléments par ci par là qui m'ont bien aidé pour mes entretiens de conseil en stratégie. Une bonne boîte à outils comme l'auteur le dit.
