McKinsey & Company Feeling rushed into setting up next interview rounds from McKinsey interviewer. Don’t have the bandwidth with current work to do adequate case practice between rounds. Will it reflect poorly on me if I push for interviews to be a week or so apart especially Round 2 and final? McKinsey & Company

Nope. The recruiter knows you have a full-time job and your interviewers won’t know when your first round was. And you don’t get bonus points for doing 20% worse one week earlier

I delayed my first round with McKinsey by about two months

Thanks!

Our R2 to Final are always at least a week apart unless you do a power round. Or at least historically they have been.

That’s great insight - really appreciate it!
