I interviewed with KI, and they asked me to come up with a presentation to give to a fake client when we role played a phone call during the interview. In no way is this one of their legitimate presentations as it was only an attempt made by myself. All of the information in the slides can be found on their website and, therefore, I do not take credit for the pictures, copy, or case studies.
