This KKR private equity case study guide is based on a real case study that the KKR Americas PE team gave to candidates in the past. We changed the ticker name to a similar company. What you see in this guide is highly reflective of what KKR sent to candidates instructing them to do the case study. KKR limited candidates usage of information to specifically what they provided and candidates were not allowed to use the Internet. The PDF only has the prompt and links to download the materials, nothing else. There’s no solution, model or guidance attached to the case. The PDF is meant to show you what private equity firms ask candidates to do (i.e. the wording of the instructions, format, time constraints). This document is not intended to teach you how to solve a PE case study.

Our case studies are as close as it gets to the real thing.
The first thing we do when we develop a case study is to thoughtfully consider the different aspects of the original real case study. What was the company? What information was provided to the candidate? What questions did the interviewers ask during the debrief? What did the candidates struggle with? We then create mock practice case studies, tailored specifically to that firm. As a result, our cases are as close as it gets to the real thing and an excellent way for you to practice.

What do I get when I purchase these prompts?
You get a PDF file with a case study prompt representative of what KKR has sent to candidates in the past. KKR limited candidates' usage of public information to two documents that they provide. We've similarly provided them in this mock case study. The purpose of this guide is to show you what KKR expects you to do in the case study.
-
Is this guide based on real KKR case studies?
Yes. This mock case is a practice exercise we created to help candidates prepare for KKR. What you see in this guide is basically what KKR gave to candidates in the past. Our mock case study changed the target company name, but the work you’ll need to do are the same.
-
Can you share with me the firm’s actual case study?
No. We only sell mock case studies written by us. These mock case studies are meant to improve your investment analysis skillset and prepare you for the real case study, like how practice exams prepare you for the real exam.
-
Can you evaluate my work on the case?
Yes. After you’ve completed the deliverables and you’d like us to evaluate your work, you should purchase our private equity interview coaching package. Be sure to check with us on availability before you purchase.
-
What about the case study debrief / case study discussion?
The purchase of this guide is for a downloadable PDF file only. We offer case study debrief preparations separately through our interview coaching service. After you’ve completed the deliverables and you’d like us to help you prepare for the case study debrief, you can purchase our private equity interview coaching package. Be sure to check with us on availability before you purchase.

Will the real case study I get from KKR be exactly the same as this guide?
This mock case study is based on a real KKR case study. KKR can change their case studies anytime. It will almost certainly be on a different company name.
