McKinsey & Company After someone refers you to McKinsey & Company, do you still apply yourself on the application portal, or are you waiting for a recruiter to reach out?

A recruiter should reach out, but ask who referred you what's up.

Interested. Had two friends refer me for BB and heard conflicting info on applying myself (Bain was told to, BCG was told to not). For both referrals I provided my cover letter and resume and city prefs. Didn’t get an email confirmation for either

You should get an automated email 1-2 days after the email. Otherwise you just apply.

No need to wait unless you need the recruiter to give you feedback on your resume or something…

at PwC someone refers you, you get an email with a link and you use that to fill out your application on your end. may be similar at McKinsey....

If you work for a McKinsey client you need to proactively apply. And Recruiting might or might not receive a green light to accept your application.

Is there any advantage to telling a company you are interested in working for in the future where you decided to accept an offer from? Or does it not matter? I accepted an offer a week ago with a great company (Company A) that for this season in my life seems like a great fit and only strengthens what I have to offer company B down the road. Company B just sent me a request for interview and I want to keep the door open with Company B but they were just very late in extending an interview.

Received a verbal offer/commitment from the engineering team 3 weeks after my interview process. Still sitting and waiting (1.5 weeks) to have the conversation about compensation expectations and finalizing the offer. Is the Google hiring process typically this slow?
