Could someone at McKinsey explain this? My understanding is that the hierarchy at McKinsey goes from Junior Associate to Associate to Engagement Manager to Associate Partner and finally Partner. On the McKinsey career site, I see several position advertised as Consultant ("implementation consultant", "Healthcare Consultant"). Are these contract-based temporary roles? Or do these positions align more to an Engagement Manager level?

My understanding is that they are on a separate track, with different comp and treated like second class citizens.

mcK2: so do you know where the Consultant role falls? From the sounds of it it's closer to an Associate then it is to Engagement Manager.

It’s typically BA->ASC->EM->AP->P

Never heard of a junior associate or just a plain “consultant”. What country are those jobs for?

Agree with M1. In the US at least you’re either a BA, ASC, EM, etc.

Hi guys, After CAF completion by last week, yesterday I received a call from the HR for the second round of evaluation. So, I attended it yesterday and performed well by answering 90-95% of the questions. Even the interviewer gave good comments on my performance. But suddenly today I received an email that my candidature isn't suitable for the role and they're keeping my profile in the database. Does this mean they'll call me if there are openings with some other project?

After ~20-30 min on a call, I stop paying attention.
