Our client is FitLife, a regional gym and fitness chain with 50 centers across North India. Over the past year, the company’s revenues have grown by 10%, but profits have dropped by 20%. The CEO is concerned because they expected profit growth to track revenue growth. They want us to identify the reasons for the declining profitability and recommend ways to address the issue.
In a profitability case, you are asked to determine why a company’s profits are under pressure and how they can be improved. At a high level, this involves breaking profits into revenues and costs, then identifying the largest drivers of the issue. You may be required to evaluate short-term actions such as cost optimization or pricing adjustments, as well as longer-term strategies like product innovation or market expansion. The focus is on structured problem solving and prioritizing the most impactful solutions.
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.
