Description
For this episode, let's revisit a Case Interview & Management Consulting classic where we speak about case solutions.

The problem with this approach is that if you offer a solution before identifying the problem, it raises concerns to the interviewer about your thinking processes - how can you offer a solution before identifying the problem? This podcast describes this issue in much more detail.
