麦肯锡经典面试题1：老板究竟亏了多少钱？（附答案）

麦肯锡经典面试题1：老板究竟亏了多少钱？（附答案）一天来了一顾客买了30元货物（进价是20元），顾客给了100元。

但老板找不开，就到邻居那换了100元零钱。

不过多久，邻居过来说刚才那一百元是假钞，老板只好重新给他换掉。

请问：这位老板因这笔生意共亏了多少钱？虽不是很难，却是决定成败的一题．答案：鉴于如此简单易想的一道逻辑应用题论坛上的各位大大居然答错率在７０％以上，我不得不为中国的应试教育感到悲伤，毕竟我也是受毒害的一员．由于万恶的楼主给题目不给答案的做法使回复高达１００多页也争论不出个结果，所以我现在来用理论而非数字仔细的来分析一下这道题，使大多数人能真正理解明白这道题，得出正确的答案．将老板的行为划分成2个方向分析价值流向即可：1.老板与客户方向：收到假币，价值为0，付给客户鞋子标价30，加上找零70元真币，0-30-70=-100；2.老板与邻居方向：拿出价值0元的假币（还不知是假）换回邻居100零钱真币，-0+100，后被发现是假币又还给邻居100真币，变为-0+100-100=0，不亏不赚，白忙活；3.答案是不是上诉两个方面代数和： -100+0= -100 即亏100呢？还不是，还差一点,,,,,(３０元的货物中有１０元的利润，实际成本只有２０元，利润可以算到亏损里吗，当然不可以，利润没有亏损一说，只有成本的损失才可以叫亏损，换个方式想想，假设老板进一批货由于各种原因最终只能以成本进货价格全部卖出你能说老板亏损了吗....)新闻联播里面常说某大型国企去年亏损或盈利**万元，可以知道这是两个完全对立的概念，不应把那本来有可能得到而没有得到的10元利润算进去，亏损多少只是相对于“不亏不赚，一年白干来”说的，而不是相对于预期收益来说的，所以应该将与客户之间的交易盈亏计算写成：0-20-70= -90，即售出的鞋子按成本价计算，最后答案：亏损90元。

麦肯锡招聘面试案例分析样题和答案

McKiney On line case studyTo step through this case example, we will give you some information, ask a question, and then, when you are ready, give you a sample answer. We hope that the exercise will give you a sense of the flow of a case interview. (Please note, you can stop this exercise and pick up where you left off later. Your cookies must be on to use this feature).In this exercise, you will answer a series of questions as the case unfolds. We provide our recommended answers after each question, with which you can compare your own answers. We want to emphasize that most questions in a case study do not have a single right answer. In a live case interview, we are more interested in your explanation of how you arrived at your answer, not just the answer itself. An interviewer can always assess different but equally valid ways of approaching an issue, and then bring you back to the particular line of inquiry that he or she wants to pursue.You should also keep in mind that in a live case, there will be far more interaction with the interviewer than this exercise allows. For example, you will have the opportunity to ask clarifying questions.Finally, a live case interview would typically be completed in 30 - 45 minutes, depending on how the case evolves. In this on-line exercise, there is no time limit.There are eight questions in this on-line case study. This case study is designed to roughly simulate one during your interview, so you will not be able to skip ahead to the next question until you have answered the one you are on. You can refresh your memory of previous answers by clicking the highlighted Q&A links to the left. To print the answer, click on the print icon that appears in the TOP RIGHT corner. At the end, you can print the entire on-line case study at once.The caseQuestion 1Client Goal: Double the number of recruits while maintaining their quality with minimal increase in resources expendedOur client recruits graduating college seniors for entry-level positions in locations around the world. It currently hires and places 500 graduates per year but would like to triple in size over the next ten years while maintaining quality. Assume that the increase must all come from hiring graduating seniors. (In an actual case, you may not be given this and other assumptions unless you ask.)The client's current recruiting budget is $2 million annually, and while it is in a strong financial position, it would like to spend as few additional resources as possible on recruiting. McKinsey is advising the client on what steps it will need to take in order to meet its growth targets, while staying within its budget constraints.Q1: What levers does the organization have at its disposal to achieve its growth goal?A: Some possible levers are given below. It's terrific if you identified several of these and perhaps some others.∙Attract more applicants at the same cost∙Review the list of campuses targeted (e.g., optimize resourceallocation across schools). The review may result in adding certainhigher potential campuses and eliminating other ones that appear tohave more limited potential.∙Review recruiting approach at each campus (e.g., optimizecost-effectiveness of messages and approaches at each school).∙Extend offers to a higher percentage of applicants while maintaining quality(e.g., reduce the number of people who are turned down who would haveperformed equally well in the job)∙Improve acceptance rates among offerees (e.g., better communicate the benefits of the job relative to alternatives or improve the attractiveness of the job relative to alternatives)Question 2For the remainder of the discussion we'd like to focus on the two specific levers involving attracting more applicants at the same cost.∙Review the list of campuses targeted (e.g., optimize resource allocation across schools). The review may result in adding certain higher potentialcampuses and eliminating other ones that appear to have more limitedpotential.∙Review recruiting approach at each campus (e.g., optimizecost-effectiveness of messages and approaches at each school).Please note that if you identified different but equally valid levers, the interviewer would be able to assess them. But for the purpose of this case study, we are going to focus on these two levers.Q2: How would you initially approach determining whether the client can increase hiring by adjusting the list of campuses targeted? What sort of analysis would you want to conduct and why?A: You might take the following approach, where we've outlined two avenues of analysis:∙Estimate the hiring potential across schools∙Analyze the number of hires by school over the last several years∙Develop a comprehensive list of schools that meet our requirements and a minimum set of standards for recruits∙Survey seniors at these schools to determine interest in anentry-level position with the client∙Consider the size of the graduating class at each school, determine how that class might be segmented (e.g., each class could besegmented by discipline or segmented based on career interests inresponse to the survey), then calculate the size of each segment ∙Estimate the optimal cost-per-hire across schools∙Compare the current cost-per hire across schools∙Identify opportunities to decrease the cost-per-hire at each schoolHelpful TipYou may have a slightly different list. Whatever your approach, we love to see candidates come at a problem in more than one way, but still address the issue as directly and practically as possible. In giving the answer, it's useful if you are clear about how the results of the analysis would help to answer the original question posed.Question 3Twenty-five percent of the annual recruiting budget is spent on candidates (i.e., attracting, assessing, and getting them to accept). Twenty percent of hires are categorized as "most expensive" and have an average cost-per-hire of $2,000.Q3: What is the average cost-per-hire of all other candidates? Remember that the client hires 500 students per year and its annual recruiting budget is $2 million (information that we hope you noted earlier).A: The answer is $750 per hire (or less than half the cost-per-hire of the "most expensive" candidates).Amount spent on the less expensive candidates:25% of $2 million budget = $500,000 spent on candidates20% of 500 student = 100 students categorized as "most expensive"100 x $2,000 cost-per-hire = $200,000 spent on "most expensive" hires$500,000 recruiting budget - $200,000 = $300,000 remaining for all other hires The number of less expensive candidates:500 hires - 100 = 400 "other hires"Cost-per-hire of the less expensive candidates:$300,000/400 =$750 per hireHelpful TipWhile you may find that doing a straightforward math problem in the context of an interview is a bit tougher, you can see that it is just a matter of breaking the problem down. We are looking for both your ability to set the analysis up properly and then to do the math in real time.Question4Q: In order to decide whether to reduce costs at the least efficient schools (i.e., those with an average cost per hire of $2,000), what else would you want to know?A: Some of the possible answers are given below.Basic questions:∙What are the components of costs at these schools (why is it so expensive to recruit there)?∙What opportunities exist to reduce costs?∙How much cost savings would result from implementing each of the opportunities?∙What consequences would implementing each of these opportunities have on recruiting at the least efficient schools?Questions demonstrating further insight:∙Why is the cost lower at more efficient schools, and are there best practices in resource management that can be applied to the least efficient schools?∙If we reduce costs at the least efficient schools, what will we do with the cost savings (i.e., what would be the benefit of spending the money elsewhere vs.where it is currently being spent)?Helpful TipWe would not expect anyone to come up with all of these answers, but we hope some of your answers head in the same direction as ours. Yours may bring some additional insights. In either case, be sure that you can clearly explain how your question will bring you closer to the right decision.Question 5The McKinsey team conducts some analysis that indicates that increasing spendingon blanket advertising (e.g., advertisements/flyers on campus) does not yield any significant increase in hires.Q5: Given that increased blanket advertising spending seems to be relatively ineffective, and the client doesn't want to increase overall costs, what might be some other ideas for increasing the candidate pool on a specific campus?A: We are looking for at least a couple of answers like the ones given below:∙Improve/enhance recruiting messages (e.g., understand target candidate group, refocus message on this group, understand competitive dynamic on campus)∙Utilize referrals (e.g., faculty, alumni)∙Come up with creative ways to target specific departments/clubs of the school∙Rethink advertising spending - while increasing blanket ad spending doesn't seem to work, advertising might still be the most efficient and effective way to increase the number of candidates if it is deployed in a more systematic, targeted wayHelpful TipThis question is a good one for demonstrating creativity because there's a long list of possible ideas. Additional insights into how a given idea would be approached and how much it would cost are helpful.Question 6For simplicity's sake, let's say we've conducted market research and found that there are two types of people on each campus, A and B. Historically, our client has also used two types of recruiting messages in its advertising. The first, called "See the World," gets one percent of type A students to apply, but three percent of type B students. The second, called "Pathway to Leadership," gets five percent of Type A students to apply, but only two percent of type B students.The chart below lists the breakdown of types A and B students at some of our major campuses, and the message our client is using on campus.Q6: Assuming there's no difference between the costs of each message, what can you tell me from this information?A: According to these numbers, the client should use the "Pathway to Leadership" message across all four universities. The "See the World" message is preferable only if more than 80% of the students at a given university are of type B.Helpful TipAn even more insightful response would mention that the ultimate answer depends on the cost of each message, whether the cost increases depending on the number of students at the campus, and how interested we are in students of Type A vs. Type B (e.g., will one type be more likely than the other to get an offer and to be successful on the job). One could imagine using both messages on some campuses if the additional cost were justified by the resulting increase in hires.Question7University 4 graduates 1,000 seniors each year.Q7: How many new candidates might be generated by changing the recruiting message at University 4 to Pathway to Leadership?A: The answer is 20 candidates (i.e., an increase of over 100%).Number of each type of student at University 4:1,000 seniors x 60% = 600 Type A students1,000 seniors x 40% = 400 Type B studentsCandidates attracted be See the World message:(1% x 600) + (3% x 400) = 18 candidatesCandidates attracted by Pathway to Leadership message:(5% x 600) + (2% x 400) = 38 candidatesIncrease in candidates resulting from change in message:38 - 18 = 20 more candidates (an increase of over 100%)Question8Q8: What sort of next steps should we tell our client we'd like to take based on what we have discussed today?A: The ability to come to a logical, defensible synthesis based on the information available at any point in an engagement is critical to the work we do. Even though we'd consider ourselves to be very early in the overall project at this point in the case, we do want to be able to share our current perspective. The ideal answer would include the following points:FINDINGS∙There appears to be an opportunity to significantly increase total applicants of the same quality that we are getting today at the same or reduced cost:∙Increasing blanket advertising is ineffective and costly, but changing the advertising message on some campuses could increaseapplicants significantly without increasing costs. At one of thecampuses we've looked at, University 4, the number of applicantswould go up more than 100 percent∙The cost-per-hire varies dramatically from school to school. This suggests that there may be opportunities to reduce costs in certainplaces or reallocate resources more efficientlyNEXT STEPS∙We plan to explore further ideas for increasing quality applications by changing the mix of schools, beginning with a more detailed review of theopportunities to reduce costs at certain schools∙After looking at levers to increase total applicants, we will be analyzing opportunities to improve the offer rate (i.e., ensure we're not turning down quality applicants) and to increase the acceptance rate∙We will examine additional methods for attracting more applications from our current campuses (e.g., referrals, clubs) in addition to assessing theimpact of improved messaging on campus。

麦肯锡案例分析

麦肯锡案例分析【篇一：麦肯锡案例分析】1．类型介绍 (1)?????????????????? 什么是case interview?一般来说，case interview主要针对咨询公司面试而言。

也有一些公司如dell二面会用一些小case来考察面试者的应变能力、考虑问题的全面性以及逻辑分析能力。

咨询公司的case interview可以分成两个部分，一开始先是warm-up。

在这一部分，你可能需要自我介绍，然后大致回答一下面试官针对简历以及个人选择提出的一些问题。

接下来才是真正的case interview。

简而言之，case interview就是现场对一个商业问题进行分析的面试。

但是和大多数其他面试不同，这是一个互动的过程。

你的面试官会给你提出一个business issue，并且会让你给出分析和意见。

而你的任务是向面试官有逻辑的提出一些问题以使得你能够对这个business issue有更全面，更细致的了解，并且通过系统的分析最后给出建议。

一般而言，case interview是没有绝对正确的答案的。

面试官看重的不是答案，而是从面试过程当中你表现出来的分析能力和创造力。

对于大学毕业，没有工作经验的学生来说，大多数情况下case不会很难，也不会需要你对那个行业有系统的了解。

case interview一般是一对一的，一轮会有两个case interview，由两个不同的面试官来负责，每个interview持续45分钟，包括10-15分钟的warm-up以及一些behavior questions，剩下的30分钟就是讨论case。

10-15分钟的warm-up一般用英文，case可能是英文，也有可能是中文，不同的公司以及不同的面试官对语言是有不同的偏好的。

(2)?????????????????? 为什么使用case interview?由于咨询师在工作上的不少时间都是在和客户以及同事进行相互的沟通，同时咨询工作本身的特点要求咨询师必须具备一系列的特质才能够成功。

Client Goal: Should Great Burger acquire Heavenly Donuts as part of its growth strategy?Our client is Great Burger (GB) a fast food chain that competes head–to-head with McDonald's,Wendy's, Burger King, KFC, etc.Description of Great BurgerGB is the fourth largest fast food chain worldwide, measured by the number of stores in operation. As most of its competitors do, GB offers food and "combos" for the three largest meal occasions:breakfast, lunch, and dinner.Even though GB owns some of its stores, it operates under the franchising business model with 85 percent of its stores owned by franchisees (individuals own and manage stores, pay franchise fee to GB, but major business decisions (e.g., menu, look of store) controlled by GB).McKinsey studyAs part of its growth strategy GB has analyzed some potential acquisition targets including Heavenly Donuts (HD), a growing doughnut producer with both a U.S. and international store presence.HD operates under the franchising business model too, though a little bit differently than GB. While GB franchises restaurants, HD franchises areas or regions in which the franchisee is required to open a certain number of stores.GB's CEO has hired McKinsey to advise him on whether they should acquire HD or not.QUESTION 1What areas would you want to explore to determine whether GB should acquire HD?ANSWER 1Some possible areas are given below. Great job if you identified several of these and perhaps others.•Stand alone value of HDo Growth in market for doughnutso HD's past and projected future sales growth (break down into growth in number of stores, and growth in same store sales)o Competition – are there any other major national chains that are doing better than HD in terms of growth/profit. What does this imply for future growth?o Profitability/profit margino Capital required to fund growth (capital investment to open new stores, working capital)•Synergies/strategic fito Brand quality similar? Would they enhance or detract from each other if marketed side by side?o How much overlap of customer base? (very little overlap might cause concern that brands are not compatible, too much might imply little room to expand sales by cross-marketing)o Synergies (Hint: do not dive deep on this, as it will be covered later) •Management team/cultural fito Capabilities/skills of top, middle managemento Cultural fit, if very different, what percent of key management would likely be able to adjust•Ability to execute merger/combine companieso GB experience with mergers in past/experience in integrating companieso Franchise structure differences. Detail “dive” into franchising structures. Would these different structures affect the deal? Can we manage two different franchising structures at the same time?The team started thinking about potential synergies that could be achieved by acquiring HD. Here are some key facts on GB and HD.Exhibit 1Stores GB HDTotal5,000 1,020North America3,500 1000Europe1,000 20Asia400 0Other100 0Annual growth in stores10% 15%Financials GB HDTotal store sales$5,500m $700mParent company revenue$1,900m $200mKey expenses (% sales)Cost of sales51% 40%Restaurant operating costs24% 26%Restaurant property & equipment costs 4.6% 8.5%Corporate general & administrative costs 8% 15%Profit as % of sales6.3% 4.9%Sales/stores$1.1m $0.7mIndustry average$0.9m $0.8mQUESTION 2What potential synergies can you think of between GB and HD?ANSWER 2We are looking for a few responses similar to the ones below:•Lower costso Biggest opportunity likely in corporate selling, general, and administrative expenses (SG&A) by integrating corporate managemento May be some opportunity to lower food costs with larger purchasing volume on similar food items (e.g., beverages, deep frying oil), however overlaps may be low as ingredients are very differento GB appears to have an advantage in property and equipment costs which might be leveragable to HD (e.g., superior skills in lease negotiation)•Increase revenueso Sell doughnuts in GB stores, or some selected GB products in HD storeso GB has much greater international presence thus likely has knowledge/skills to enable HD to expand outside of North Americao GB may have superior skills in identifying attractive locations for stores as its sales per store are higher than industry average, whereas HD's is lower than industry average; might be able to leverage this when opening new HD stores to increase HD average sales per storeo Expand HD faster than it could do on own–GB, as a larger company with lower debt, may have better access to capitalQUESTION 3The team thinks that with synergies, it should be possible to double HD’s U.S. market share in the next 5 years, and that GB’s access to capital will allow it to expand the number of HD stores by 2.5 times. What sales per store will HD require in 5 years in order for GB to achieve these goals? Use any data from Exhibit 1 you need, additionally, your interviewer would provide the followingassumptions for you:•Doughnut consumption/capita in the U.S. is $10/year today, and is projected to grow to $20/year in 5 years.•For ease of calculation, assume U.S. population is 300m.ANSWER 3You should always feel free to ask your interviewer additional questions to help you with yourresponse.Possible responses might include the following:•Market share today: $700M HD sales (from Exhibit 1) ÷ $3B U.S. market ($10 x 300M people) = 23% (round to 25% for simplicity sake)•U.S. market in 5 years = $20 x 300 = $6B•HD sales if double market share: 50% x $6B = $3B•Per store sales: $3B/2.5 (1000 stores) = $1.2MDoes this seem reasonable?•Yes, given it implies less than double same store sales growth and per capita consumption is predicted to double.QUESTION 4One of the synergies that the team thinks might have a big potential is the idea of increasing the businesses' overall profitability by selling doughnuts in GB stores. How would you assess theprofitability impact of this synergy?ANSWER 4Be sure you can clearly explain how the assessment you are proposing would help to answer the question posed.Some possible answers include:•Calculate incremental revenues by selling doughnuts in GB stores (calculate how many doughnuts per store, times price per doughnut, times number of GB stores)•Calculate incremental costs by selling doughnuts in GB stores (costs of production, incremental number of employees, employee training, software changes, incremental marketing and advertising, incremental cost of distribution if we cannot produce doughnuts in house, etc.) •Calculate incremental investments. Do we need more space in each store if we think we are going to attract new customers? Do we need to invest in store layout to have in-house doughnut production?•If your answer were to take into account cannibalization, what would be the rate of cannibalization with GB offerings? Doughnut cannibalization will be higher with breakfast products than lunch and dinner products, etc.•One way to calculate this cannibalization is to look at historic cannibalization rates with new product/offering launchings within GB stores•Might also cannibalize other HD stores if they are nearby GB store–could estimate this impact by seeing historical change in HD’s sales when competitor doughnut st ore opens nearbyQUESTION 6You run into the CEO of GB in the hall. He asks you to summarize McKinsey’s perspective so far on whether GB should acquire HD. Pretend the interviewer is the CEO–what would you say?ANSWER 6You may have a slightly different list. Whatever your approach, we love to see candidates come at a problem in more than one way, but still address the issue as directly and practically as possible.Answers may vary, but here is an example of a response:•Early findings lead us to believe acquiring HD would create significant value for GB, and that GB should acquire HDo Believe can add $15 thousand in profit per GB store by selling HD in GB stores. This could mean $50 million in incremental profit for North American stores (where immediate synergies are most likely given HD has little brand presence in rest of world)o We also believe there are other potential revenue and cost synergies that the team still needs to quantify•Once the team has quantified the incremental revenues, cost savings, and investments, we will make a recommendation on the price you should be willing to pay•We will also give you recommendations on what it will take to integrate the two companies in order to capture the potential revenue and cost savings, and also to manage the different franchise structures and potentially different cultures of GB and HD。

【实例】麦肯锡面试的成功与失败实例-30页

我闯入了麦肯锡的两轮面试后却失败了２００１：面试麦肯锡从加州理工到高盛银行第二轮面试惨遭淘汰为何选了我高薪、旅行各国、接触不同企业、结识各领域领导人物如何应聘咨询公司（下）——个案调查我闯入了麦肯锡的两轮面试后却失败了我是南京大学商院97级的，已经毕业一段时间了，这期间一直希望进入一家国际一流咨询企业，经历了很多面试和挫折，虽然都以失败告终，但收获还是有的。

我写下来一是想和现在找工作的同学互勉；二是为了给以后想进入全球顶尖咨询和投行的师弟师妹们一些经验和教训。

E-mail通知面试麦肯锡很奇怪，是E-mail通知面试的。

一共56个人被选出来参加第一论面试。

在第一轮面试之前有一个笔试，叫mckinsey caselets，居然是ETS出品的。

里面的很多case与几大咨询公司网站上提供的case比较相似，只要你能融会贯通，做题不难，但是阅读量挺大。

我考过gmat，提前20分钟做完。

考完笔试会有一个pre－interview reception，这和笔试一样都不影响你是否进入下一轮面试。

这个reception就是有些麦肯锡的大中小“牛”们出来和同学们见个面，介绍一下麦肯锡的case interview是什么样的，还有就是做广告。

个人觉得麦肯锡这样很人性化，很重视applicatant。

这时会发给你一张interview schedule，我看了一下，上面一半以上是海归，还有好多是什么牛津，剑桥毕业的，吓死人。

第一轮面试感觉良好我是第二天下午一点多面试的。

麦肯锡的面试一共3轮，每轮两个面试官。

每轮都包括behavior interview和case interview。

第一个面试我的是一个全球副董，聊的时候她很严肃，我就没话找话，把能说的都说了。

然后她就给我做了一个关于mobile phone manufactuer进入中国市场的案例，整个过程还算不错。

第二个是一个资深顾问，我觉得他是我在所有面试官面前发挥得最好的一次。

麦肯锡公司招聘案例分析
麦肯锡公司招聘的理念是注重招聘“尖子”员工，所谓的“尖子”员工就是指在一个方面具有突出能力或者拥有特殊技能的员工，然而，在众多的选拔标准中，分析能力被摆在了第一位。

公司招聘的方式是用问题解答的形式进行的，公司所选择的问题考察的是整体的分析能力，根据案例查找到了该形式：麦肯锡的面试有2－3轮，主要是case study。

咨询公司的案例涉及各个行业，案例分析要求你有很强的逻辑分析能力，能把一个问题分解成多个小的问题。

准备面试是需要付出很大努力的事情，最好要提前准备。

至晚到九月十月也要开始准备了。

咨询公司的案例考的分析能力，并不希望你照搬书本。

但是首先你看看管理学方面的书会
有好处，另外多看和练习案例分析都是对发展自己的思路有帮助的。
