Hi Melissa, thank you for your question. Our case interviews are mainly candidate led, so the interviewers may ask you to structure a problem and find different solutions. Often you should summarize the result in a short presentation at the end.

Hi Marika thank you for the clarification. Regarding the short presentation, via zoom, do you mean showing some paper slides or rather synthesizing the findings verbally ? :)

Both is possible, In a virtual setting, you often just need to summarize the results verbally, but it is also possible that you summarize a short slide and share it.
In the face-to-face format, a flipchart is often used :)

Regarding your first question: we want you to be in the "driver seat" and lead through the case interview
