[QUOTE="Dwight, post: 71345, member: 4218"] Hi, [USER=5063]@Jacob Miller[/USER] I am slightly confused with the 3 styles for the following question: [I]“Tell me about a commercial issue you have been following in the news”. [/I]None of the styles answer the effect of the story on business and firm/clients of firm. How I understand this classic question to be asked is "tell me a recent news story you have read and how it affect business and/or our firm/our clients". The way I structured it for a grad rec interview this cycle was (1) introduction of story (2) effect of story on business world (3) effect of story on firm/clients. So, with the Arcadia and style A you mentioned I would (1) introduce topic (2) discuss reasons that led to the fall of Arcadia (3) link this to other economic events. Do you see what I mean about this potentially not answering the question? Therefore, I am confused then as to whether there are two types of questions: (a) discuss a recent commercial [B]issue[/B]; and (b) discuss a recent news [B]story[/B] and effect on firm/clients. By news story I mean, for example: Tesla purchasing 1.5B in BTC. So then, I would talk about the effect of this on business and effect on firm. [/QUOTE]
