More on Critical Thinking

Here is a company who values critical thinking over any other skill one has to offer. Take a look at Bain & Company’s description of an ideal candidate (emphasis mine):

We are looking for people with exceptional analytical skills. Where did you go to school? What did you study? These are important questions, but we’re even more concerned about your ability to think. Can you break down problems into smaller parts and then focus on gathering the right information to hit each issue? Are you comfortable being challenged regularly by new industries and new situations?

Try out their practice cases and exercise your critical thinking skills. It reminds me of a complex brain teaser puzzle couched in a real-life situation.
