Did my “1st round” (2 cases and 2 PEI’s) interview at McKinsey on Friday. How long should I expect to hear back if I made it to the 2nd and final round?

I didn’t hear back from them about whether I got second round until Wednesday of following week after interviewing 1st round on a friday. Ended up getting 2nd round (& eventually the offer), so hope isn’t lost if there’s a delay!

It varies but is as soon as next day and as late as two weeks. It takes some time for recruiters to match candidates to offices. I interviewed all day a few weeks ago on a Friday. Soonest I called was Monday; latest was 11 days later. First calls were the turndowns. Matches came later and varied.

Hi there - what do you mean by “match candidates to offices” and what is the general process for that? I had my first round a while back and still haven’t received feedback so trying to gain some insight…

Typically by Tuesday or Wednesday of the following week at the latest.

What type of role was this? Traditional consulting or implementation?

Not to be a downer, but if you didn’t hear back day of it’s more likely you didn’t make it.

False. Office matches take several days.

SC1 the jobs our “traditional consultants” and implementation folks do are almost indistinguishable. Roughly 70-80% of the work our consultants do will be some form of implementation and client coaching. There’s very few “lock them in a closet for 4 weeks and come back with a PowerPoint strategy” studies anymore.

I recently joined Swiss Re at 30lpa, pretty good manager and work culture. Got a hike of 10% in 3 months without me asking for it.

Now I am unsure how I convey this to my manager coz I want to stay here but at the same time I am salivating over this new offer and wish I get similar numbers here. Is it worth raising a discussion? If yes what would be a subtle way to do so?
