Consulting case interviews, office selection: McKinsey, BCG, Bain
This episode is a short piece from a full session available to FC Insiders on StrategyTraining website and apps.
NEW PILOT INITIATIVE - One-on-one advice session with Michael: As many of you know, we have a long waiting list for private coaching with Michael, over 3 years, and a very stringent selection process, very few people are selected. However, we launched a pilot initiative within which a few spots are available now.
You are welcome to apply for a one-on-one advice session with Michael. Can be regarding any aspect of your career: helping you develop your career plan, getting Michael's input on specific career challenge you are facing, getting advice on growing/starting your own business, preparing for case interviews, lessons from Lisa's journey to her greencard, etc.
To make sure it is a win-win, the advice session is recorded and made available to the FIRMSconsulting community and/or becomes part of FC training content. Additionally, a fee is charged to make this more of a win-win for both parties. This also ensures the seriousness of candidates.
This is a very rare opportunity to do a one-on-one session with Michael. If your application is approved you can request additional sessions after your first session, subject to availability. Contact support@firmsconsulting.com for more details and to apply.

An explosive expose of Samsung, one of the biggest and most secretive companies in the world, as the Korean juggernaut battles Apple and Sony to dominate the world of technology.
Seen for decades in tech circles as a fast follower rather than an innovation leader, Samsung today has grown to become a market leader in the United States and around the globe. They have captured one quarter of the smartphone market and have been pushing the envelope on every front. In SAMSUNG RISING: The Inside Story of the South Korean Giant that Set Out to Beat Apple and Conquer Tech, Geoffrey Cain offers a penetrating look behind the curtains of the biggest company nobody in America knows.

We hope you will enjoy the "Consulting case interview (McKinsey, BCG, Bain) example: French Dairy Farm Wants to Increase Revenue" episode. This is an excerpt from TCO IV with Sizan, episode 33.
This is a market share case. If we gave Sizan a case about a factory she would find it easier to increase production. But it is not as easy when it comes to dealing with animals. This is a case with production element.
The part we expect candidates to see is that this is a case about stealing market share. To steal market share there are 4 things you can do.
How do you steal market share?
1. Price
2. Place
3. Promotion
4. Product.
The 4 Ps of marketing.
You need to think about the case. Ask yourself what are we trying to do. We got a dairy company. We want to sell more. What does it mean to sell more?
We basically want to increase our market share. How do we take market share?
Every single case can be reduced to either increasing revenue or cutting costs. If you trying to sell more milk, you are trying to increase revenue. This is a revenue case where we specifically want to focus on volume.
Milk is a commodity. Even organic milk is a commodity.
Remember you need to follow the right process during a consulting case interview when you are preparing and going through interviews with companies like McKinsey, BCG, Bain, Deloitte etc. In fact, learning and mastering this process will also greatly help you when you start working as a management consultant, and even once you exit consulting.
You can't just rely on your knowledge and experience. Your experience and knowledge can get outdated, but if you follow the right process you are giving yourself the best chance to be a strong problem solver.
