Can I leverage interviews with BCG and Bain and a couple offers from other firms to get an interview with McKinsey?

Kinda. You have to be interesting enough for the recruiter to want to talk to you, and then you can ask about timelines - mention that you have some other interviews as well with fellow consulting firms, so wanted to get a sense for timelines. Hopefully they will take the bait and ask which ones :)

How exactly do you plan to do that lol? Email McK recruiter and said “Hey I’m having offers from some firms and interviewing with BCG and Bain. Can you guys interview me too to make it a triple shot?” ??🤪

funny

No. You might be able to leverage interviews at BB to get you an interview decision faster for McK, though the final decision will be the same.

No you can only leverage an offer from Goldman Sachs

Lol why don’t you just get the McKinsey offer then
