A pricing case asks you to determine the optimal price for a product or service to maximize profit or achieve a specific business goal. You’ll evaluate how customers perceive value, how price affects demand, and how competitors are positioned. This typically includes analyzing costs, willingness to pay, and pricing models such as subscription, tiered, or dynamic pricing. In addition to recommending a price point or strategy, you may also assess potential trade-offs, revenue impact, and any operational or brand implications of the chosen approach.
To ensure you have the best possible experience, treat this simulation like the real thing. Here are a few tips to help you prepare:
Grab a Pen and Paper: This is essential. You'll need it to structure your thoughts, perform calculations, and take notes on the information you receive.
Find a Quiet Space: The AI interviewer is sensitive to voice input and will be interrupted if it detects noise, therefore find a quiet spot and give the interview as you would for any other interview.
Think Out Loud: Your thought process is what's being evaluated. Verbalize your structure, your hypotheses, and your math so the interviewer can follow your logic.
The Persona is a Test: Your AI interviewer will be professional and demanding. This is intentional to simulate the pressure of a real consulting interview. Stay confident and trust your analysis.
The AI is a Tool, Not a Person: Our simulation is highly advanced, but it's not perfect. If it seems to misunderstand something, simply clarify your question and continue with your logical approach.
