Sep 2026 Big 4 Cases
EY-Parthenon applications close September 22. PwC Strategy& closes September 25, and Deloitte S&O closes November 1. If you're applying to Big 4 strategy and advisory roles, interviews follow these deadlines – and the prep window is shorter than most candidates expect.
Most people applying to these practices practice cases with friends who've never been through a Big 4 strategy case interview and repeat the same mistakes for weeks without knowing it.
On Wednesday, September 23 at 5PM ET, MC coach Mitali Jalan breaks down where Big 4 strategy candidates lose their offer and what to do about it before your interview window opens. Mitali started her career at Deloitte Strategy & Operations before moving to Bain & Company, where she worked as a senior consultant and sat on the interview side of the table. She's coached over 350 candidates into top-tier firms and knows what EY-Parthenon, Deloitte S&O, Strategy&, and KPMG Strategy interviewers evaluate – and where candidates keep falling short.
You'll leave with a clear picture of what Big 4 firms are looking for in a case interview and a prep plan built around the time you have left. Register for free – if you can't make it live, the replay gets sent to everyone who signs up.
