Day 53 - May 23

I went through the entire Victor Cheng's Case Interview Secrets book and the LOMS videos and also went through about 10 cases so far. Now I get the hang of it, but I need to practice to get better.

Today again I had a call with the travel company and they asked me to look for opportunities in the US and touch base with them later. Idiots! Why do they schedule a call and waste my time, I don't understand.

Recruiting is really going downhill. I need better time management. This is the status of last week and it doesn't look promising.

Statistics for week 6 ending May 20th 
  1. Informationals - 1
  2. Applications - 2
  3. Emails sent - 19
    1. Alums - 6
    2. Recruiters - 13
  4. Questions - 0
I finally managed to have the courage to case with two people online. For the first one, I was pushed to do it because I had given a case already and my case partner wanted to return the favor. However, I did terribly and was so discouraged. My case partner gave me an actual case from an interview. Also, I couldn't understand his accent and couldn't understand the question either. I simply did not understand the graph. The second case practice was so much better. This again, I had given a case before and my case partner scheduled time with me to give me a case. I got great feedback and points to improve. It was a profit and loss calculation and more of a strategic case. My case partner was simply awesome! I mean, I was impressed. People who I contacted on the internet behaving so nicely and fairly! Much much better than my B-School classmates, for sure. One of them knows I am recruiting, but still asked me to give her cases. Not, can we practice casing, but can I give her cases. Incorrigible.
