Case interviewing involves is a highly developed style of questioning typically used for recruiting individuals for management consultancy jobs, but it can also be encountered in general interviews.
Examples:
- Brainstorming - How many different ways (at least 30) can you use a mousetrap? (or paperclip?)
- Scenario planning - How would you go about setting up a copper mine in New Guinea (or Afghanistan)?
- Problem approach - How many gallons of paint are needed to paint the entire Qantas fleet (or How many paper based nappies are sold each year in Australia?)
They are not focussing so much on your answers but how you attack problems. You are expected, by the companies using this style of interview process, to do lots of practice.
