Kind of, not rly. IMO once you get the hang of the case interview format you just need to be able to think on your feet and communicate well.

But if you feel you need more time just stall the interview dates a little - choose the latest options they give you

Pick the latest date but tbh no, it’s monumentally harder to case prep for working folk than for students. If it helps, you’re competing against others in the same situation

Yeah I applied over a month ago and it was radio silence. Heard yesterday evening that I have my interview on the 10th and the only slots were between 10am and 2pm. Not a great buffer to try and take a half day or something.

I've been prepping for my McKinsey interview coming up. Are they drastically different to prep for besides me driving the case direction?

Yes

What's your background? I applied and they rejected me but bcg and McK invited for an interview. Wondering if they are looking for something specific

I applied to Chicago earlier this year and got responses pretty fast. Have friends who got reached out to by Chicago recruiters too at the C level, and all of us have had some PE DD experience on our resumes as a common theme.
