[QUOTE="Naomi U, post: 46771, member: 4043"] Hi [USER=1859]@Donzi[/USER] First of all, congratulations on your interview! I think interviewers who ask this question are less concerned with the specific location you give, but rather your reasons why. This question is designed to test your knowledge of the firm, its clients, and the markets they operate in. With this in mind, my initial advice would be to read up on the firm's present locations. The last thing you want to do is to name a location that the firm is already based in! In addition to this, when approaching your research to this question, consider these factors: - Who are the firm’s key clients and what industries and locations do they currently operate in? - Who are the client's key competitors and what is the current state of their relationship e.g. is there a new product line or area in which companies are expanding into? - What is the current status of the industries that the clients operate in e.g. has there been a decline/ has there been recent technical developments? - What role does geographic location play in the success or failure of these industries e.g. has there been a tightening/relaxing of government restrictions (tax holidays, competition policies, employment, and labour laws) - What are the current emerging markets and how could the firm's clients interact with such markets considering the information above? These are some ideas to hopefully streamline your research. Remember the focus is not so much on the exact location you choose but rather your reasons for doing so. Best of luck & keep us updated!
