Anyone know the secret in getting an interview at McKinsey? I know potential hires typically get noticed at Deloitte through referrals and direct emails to the recruiter, but what about McKinsey? Are the applications online a black hole as well? I know an incredibly smart TS SCI Full Scope Poly professional and I think they would be incredible at McKinsey but not sure how to advise them. Any tips?

What is a TS SCI Full Scope Poly professional?

Just apply online. Lots of people here did. Our recruiters are pretty good. A general referral will get you nothing - they’ll just send the resume to recruiting. So same as applying online. Though if you know someone who does similar work that will at least get the resume to the right recruiter.

I heard that McKinsey is tapping a lot into the defense and security government space especially during COVID19. I saw that they are looking for people with a TS/SCI w/ polygraph clearance. But thank you for the advice! Good to know applying online actually works! Lol

Yeah, just cold applied online
