Beginner consulting case interview (w/ BCG & Bain Consultants)

🎥 Here’s a beginner profitability case interview featuring ex-BCG & Bain Consultants, focused on a beginner-level profitability analysis for a major public event.

For over 30 years, the Consulting Club at Charles River University has held a coveted license to sell Boston Marathon merchandise. Once a thriving fundraiser, the initiative has seen profits steadily decline in recent years. As the new club president, your goal is to figure out what’s gone wrong—and how to turn it around.
