Completed my McKinsey final round / R2 on Friday at 4pm. Partner case i felt great about. The other two interviews i feel okay about bc my math experience felt awful – I had really good vibes with both of them. For those interviews, my framework was alright to good, and i needed some guidance on the math but i felt like i talked through it well.
If I haven’t heard back yet tho, is it likely a no? I know it’s somewhat of a holiday weekend so I’m praying

Not true about hiring decisions on the same day. It does happen if all interviewers talk to each other the same day. If they can’t talk, then it gets postponed till they do. Don’t worry, you’re in it till you get the email!

Hi, yeah happy to share. I received pretty vague feedback and was told “there was some inconsistency with your problem solving, particularly around the quantitative portion” which tracks tbh. I knew going in that the quant. questions were my biggest challenge. I felt confident and MECE in my frameworks + insights, and i just prayed that i performed well enough in those that it’d make up for my weakness in quant lol but it didn’t

Hey Fishes I have completed close to 4.5 years in EY under the Tax Operation team specialized in resource management.

Been working on mostly (about 70%) public sector policy and strategy at Big 4 for most of my career. Often go up against MBB on RFPs and have a decent win rate.

Read that McK is paying 2K higher than BCG this year which means BCG will probably raise again next year to at least match. However, they can’t just copy McK with 2K to match because that would look bad so they’ll have to beat it again. Then McK and Bain will follow. Barring a devastating recession, I’m guessing this means MBB is all getting raises again next year?
