Consulting Case Interview Practice Questions

Answer: No. The Foreign Corrupt Practices Act explicitly prohibits the bribery of foreign government officials. Even if it is common practice in Nigindia, you are not permitted by U.S. law to pay the kickback.

Key Takeaway: It’s not whether you get this question right but how decisively you respond to moral questions. It’s even better if you can think of a situation where you acted especially ethically to supplement your answer. Don’t look at this as yes/no question in an interview, but a chance to drive home that you are a person who always behaves ethically.
