From my understanding McKinsey implementation isn't like big4/ACN implementation. You help develop the strategy with the McKinsey strategy team and then help the client execute the strategy. It's a bridge between the upstream and downstream consulting services. Very similar to the service Deloitte S&O is structured as. If anyone has tips for the case interviews at McKinsey I would be very thankful

Anyone knows the chances of location being changed after receiving the offer and getting tagged to a project?

I have not yet accepted the offer.
