Difficulty: Stretch. Format: written case, with a data pack. Industry: Private equity and healthcare. Region: UAE. Interview length: about 45 minutes. The company is fictional and all figures are illustrative. In a written case you usually get 30 to 60 minutes with a data pack, then present your slides and answer questions.
