          Sample Questions & Answers

          How does the firm adapt to lower demand during economic slowdowns?

          Many corporate customers cut outside expenses or delay major projects when profits are low. The revenue of many professional firms dropped during the late 2000s recession; particularly hard-hit were advertising, engineering, and IT services firms.

           

          How does the firm mitigate the risk that customers will sue?

          Because of the greater involvement of professional firms in the operations of corporate customers, firms face greater risk of blame or liability if their advice proves faulty. Customers are quicker to blame advisers, and regulators are more likely to...

            What strategies does the firm use to protect against slowdowns in construction activity?
