Got informed that my start date at McKinsey as a BA is pushed back from Jan to October 2024. I have already been waiting since December 2022. What is going on? I am pretty depressed about this news as I had been planning for my future and was planning on leaving my current role. My peers are moving ahead, but I’m still waiting to start . Advice on this? (EMEA)

Jan to October push is crazy.

As an ex recruiter, it wouldn’t hurt to ask for a 30min call with your recruiter to tell her about your concerns and the situation and try to push for another date like july, entry dates are usually super manageable, at least for her to have you top of mind when this matter is brought up in the office

Hi there -
I applied to an experienced consultant position at Bain and just heard back. Yesterday, I received an invite to a HireVue one-way interview to complete. Today, I received an invite for a coffee chat with a consultant. I’m of course going to do both, but the emails make it seem like they are almost two separate paths/disconnected processes. Can anybody offer some insight into each of these/the process?
