Where do you see yourself in 10 years?
Most surprising was probably the Powerpoint presentation. Did not see that one coming at all, and the timing is extremely stressful.
Case was a market share question about a drug. Pretty standard and straightforward (especially if you have previous experience; I did not and just crash studied cases for 3 days and still thought the case to be manageable and got it right). Keep in mind they do keep your "jotting notes" paper and also expect you to bring your own.
General questions: Tell me about yourself; Why consulting? Why L.E.K.? 1) Market sizing question on medical equipment and consumables. Details and numbers were provided on Power Point slides. Graphs were not difficult. Asked to calculate percentages. You need to pay attention at the graphs’ axes. 2) The client has in its early development cannabis patches to treat pain. At the same time, it sales opioid medication. Should it continue with the development of the patches?
Very standard background questions: past experience, why leave your own company, why L.E.K.
Why LEK? Why this position?
Do not remember the case.
