Welcome to the Ready Set Do podcast, where we discuss remarkable stories by regular people. In this episode, my guest is Aditya Kudhari. Aditya is a senior business analyst at Capital One Financial Services.
Case interviews are a common method used by consulting firms and increasingly tech companies to assess a candidate's analytical and problem-solving skills. During a case interview, candidates work with the interviewer to identify, analyze key issues
and propose solutions to business problems. It can feel extremely daunting to have to do math while a couple people are very carefully observing your every move while also having to structure your thoughts and communicate them
effectively, forming those ideas and sharing them coherently are a key aspect of case interviews. Like with most things in life, excelling at case interviews can simply be a function
of your practice level as well as the resources you leverage to bring yourself up to speed. I've had the pleasure of being coached firsthand by Aditya when I had a case interview call
