Dear HR Veterans,
I am currently enrolled in an MBA program with a specialization in HR. As I prepare for my final interviews, I am in search of a comprehensive collection of HR case studies. These case studies will serve as valuable resources to hone my problem-solving skills in addressing HR-related business challenges.
Also, I am keen to receive guidance on how to best prepare myself for the interviews. Could you please advise me on the key areas I should focus on within HR to ensure a strong performance in my final interviews?

Internet has hundreds of case studies on every topic under the same. One life time is not enough to go through everything. Just keep those case studies aside. You use logic and your own native intelligence in providing solutions. You will ace the interview if you are honest and speak from your heart. Theories evolved from real-life experiences. So, think of possible solutions using logic and common sense. Best wishes
