CASE IN POINT: Government and Nonprofit: Case Interview and Strategic Preparation for Consulting Interviews in the Public Sector

by Marc P. Cosentino, Evan Piekara

Case interviews come in all formats. The key, as an interviewee, is being prepared. Know what the interviewer is looking for, know the industry/sector, the jargon, the constraints and stakeholders, and how people in the industry operate. Government and nonprofit cases span a wide variety of problems, issues, stakeholders, and politics, which makes them trickier than private sector case interviews.

[Evan Piekara · Rating 5 out of 5]

Admittedly, I’m biased in my review. This book was written as a letter to my younger self and contains takeaways, insights, and reflections learned from both sides of the interview table. I’ve also found little consolidated best practices for government and nonprofit case interviews and this book combines lessons learned through research and experience. Most of note are the case transcripts to help you identify distinctions in government and nonprofit cases as well as a rating rubric to help you build your case proficiency. Finally, there are fifteen partner cases that enable you to put what you learned into practice.

CASE IN POINT: Government and Nonprofit: Case Interview and Strategic Preparation for Consulting Interviews in the Public Sector

[Ranjana Kohli · Rating 5 out of 5]

Case In Point: Government and Nonprofit provides some great perspective and lessons learned from someone who has been both an interviewer for these positions and an interviewee. It is clear that these lessons learned could benefit anyone preparing for roles in government, nonprofit, consulting and other social sector roles. The frameworks and rubric for case interviews were especially helpful.
