Every year around this time, the insanity starts for MBAs (and undergrads) trying to get consulting jobs and internships. People are chasing their dream job at McKinsey, Bain, BCG, or a boutique in the field of interest.
Having been through this a few times, I learned some of the ins and outs. It's a stressful process, and one where every edge counts.
I spent part of my summer before starting work at CSMG developing a strategy consulting case interview prep iPhone application. It's now available on the iTunes store. It was more of a pet project than anything else. I did it mainly by asking what type of review would be a helpful supplement to my case preparations. I noticed that a lot of MBAs do have smart phones, and they might want to take advantage of some of their downtime commuting or between classes to get that little extra edge.
I ended up hiring a PhD in education to write some math questions, and writing most of the strategy questions myself. I encourage you to give a shot and let me know what you think!
