McKinsey & Company Fishes from McKinsey & Company need your inputs for below:
So I had my Senior Partner interview scheduled for today and It went like
For every question he asked me and I give my answer he’s like - “Nice, very good and awesome”.
I didn’t hear anything else in the entire convo and 45 min discussion was concluded in 30 mins.
I’m not able to understand what does it mean was interview good or bad?
I’m so worried now.

What role are you interviewing for?

Associate

You are interviewing for Associate and all through the case and behavioral he said nothing but “nice”?. That seems very very odd. Maybe he was disengaged? But not sure he got the evidence he needed for a decision without saying anything more than nice.

Sounds like you passed on the case. There was split decision on PEI and they asked additional interview focused on PEI.

There’s no such thing as fit, it was just PEI conducted in a slightly different way because the SP felt like it

Ey OP any update ?
