Hybrid cases are business problems that blend multiple case types—such as profitability, market entry, pricing, growth strategy, or even M&A—into a single scenario. Unlike traditional cases that test one framework at a time, hybrid cases require candidates to move across different approaches, connect insights from various domains, and adapt their problem-solving as new information unfolds. They closely mirror real consulting projects, where challenges are rarely isolated and often demand a mix of strategic, financial, and operational thinking.
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.
