Haven’t heard back from McK since I submitted my resume through a referral 1.5months ago (experienced hire). The person who referred me says it’s still “under review”. Is there any way I can follow up with my application, or should I just take this as a rejection?

I really really want to work for McK and have put in a lot of effort to research and prepare.. so I don’t want to give up yet.

I applied with a referral for an EH analyst role at McKinsey earlier this year. It took ~2.5 months (early March until late May) for me to hear back from a recruiter to begin the interview process.

Personally, I just waited until I heard back. Not sure who you would follow up with, unless you have already been in contact with a recruiter

Truth. Find faith and joy in submission to the LORD. If you’re pursuing perfection in this world, you’re going to be let down. God does have bigger plans for you but they are through these problems. Joseph, Moses, Job, Paul, Peter and everyone else we read about, lived a life of struggle, as many do today. Instead of trying to wish away little issues from the eternal perspective, look up and be a blessing to someone else. Selfless love. Shining the light of Christ.
