OP, on video might actually be easier than in person if you play it right. Figure out your best angle :) stick post its with bullet points on the screen, and give it your best. You’ll do great, good luck!

I don’t why where you’re going with this M1, but as the great American Philosopher said...

McK does video interviews?

Learn how to spellcheck

If you don't mind me asking, where are you currently in Deloitte (level and offering) and where are you interviewing within McK? Thanks!
