Calder & Finch · Associate Consultant · Workday simulation
A short case simulation instead of a first case interview
You'll spend about 60 minutes as a new associate on a client engagement for Wrenfield Home, a home goods retailer. Your engagement manager needs a short recommendation before a client meeting.
Open book
Use any tool, including the AI research assistant in the workspace. You're responsible for what you hand in; we look at how you verify and decide.
A person reviews this
No automatic rejections. A consultant reads how you worked and decides; later interviews stay human.
What's recorded
The order of what you open, ask and submit, and the text you send. Your private notes are never scored. You’ll share your screen during the case (required); you set it up before the workspace opens.
People you'll interact with in the virtual workspace
Colleagues and client staff reply in character (AI-backed, or scripted when offline). Everything is fictional.
Use your usual tools
Work as you would on the job: use any tools you normally would. Your screen share shows the hiring team how you work.
Start the case
No personal data: use any display alias, or leave it blank for a random one.
