Don’t underestimate PEI, if you’re going to practice by yourself record yourself saying your answers *out loud* and play them back to judge yourself

Google is your friend :) it’s our version of a behavioral interview

Review the practice cases online. Don’t over-index on Case in Point - it’s not really relevant for McK

Are you talking about the online cases on their website or just the ones on google/YouTube

Has anyone else gone back to relying more on public transportation with the surging Uber / Lyft prices. Trips to and from ohare are costing me about as much as the plane tickets themselves, and even simple things like meeting a friend for dinner in another neighborhood ends up costing around $80 in transportation costs. I haven’t taken buses and trains much since I’ve graduated but now it just feels like I’m throwing money out the window by not making the switch back.

Recalling my first onboarding meeting in-house with the c - suite. Thinking back now recalling that they would often mention if someone they are referring to is a woman. For example, "Oh we have these two women doing x, y, and z and they do it well, a well-oiled machine." etc. I was the only woman in the room. They did not mention when someone performing a particular role was a man but they did point out when it's a woman, happened about four times. Odd, no? What would you make of this?

I recently applied for a position in one of McKinsey’s recently acquired firm for Senior Software Engineer (Team Lead).

Wondering if this is a red flag.
