The interview starts with get to know you questions. For example why you want to work in consulting, why Mastercard, where you see your self in 5 year, etc.
The it moves to a case study question. This will repeat for 3 levels of interviews.
I would recommend a book call “case in point” it covers both the basic get to know you questions and how you should think to any the case study questions.
Just keep in mind the case studies are more for how you think to solve the problem then getting the right answer.
the interview was a one way interview and then a two round live casing interview. both interviewers were professional and amicable during the interviews and it was not difficult to proceed
