I applied through an employee referral. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at McKinsey & Company (San Francisco, CA) in Oct 2024
Interview
Tough, I practiced most for the case but was caught off guard by the PEI. The case was relatively basic, so if you do enough prep for that you will be fine.

Question 1
Why Mckinsey and what about consulting interests you
Ofrece muchos recursos a tu disponibilidad para preparar las entrevistas como reuniones online para explicar el proceso, y grupos de ayuda. El proceso es largo, pero lo merece para pertenecer a esta empresa.
Gave assessment. Waiting 1st round. But, here the assessment and resume are scored together to reach next round. Might take 1-3 weeks for invite. Assessment has only 20% - 30% weightage.
The recruiter was great! 2 rounds of 5 interviews, first was 2 associates, second was 3 partners. My first round, the interviewers spoke absolutely broken English and made it extremely difficult to understand what they are trying to say. My second interviewer was extremely rude as well. Honestly comes down to who interviews you and the case selection that will determine your fate
