Hey fishes!
I got reached out by a McK recruiter for the Implementation practice. I’m interested and would like to consider this opportunity! Would someone be willing to chat? I’m looking to learn more about projects, WLB, prep etc.
[Engineering Background, 5yrs+ Industry exp (Manufacturing), MBA]

Sounds like you have the perfect background. Feel free to ask any other specific questions you have, but generally prep would be identical to a generalist role. Practice cases and get good at structuring problems. Have a few good stories prepared for the Personal Experience portion. WLB varies depending on the project you do. You have flexibility just like generalists. You might do a 4 week strategy project in the private equity space working 80 hours per week. You might then do a 6 month operational transformation and work 55 hours per week.

Sounds good. This is very helpful.
During my call with the recruiter, should i talk about a specific role? Such as Associate-Imp (General) vs Associate Imp (Manufacturing).
Also, is compensation discussed during recruiter phone call?

It wouldn't hurt to express certain interests and ask questions, but honestly those two roles will be virtually identical.

As for compensation it's the standard post-MBA Associate offer of $165k base plus up to $35k bonus.

Hi all, recently a recruiter from Amazon reached out for an SDE 2(2+ years of exp. required) role and I'm a recent CS grad. I gave the OA (which was extremely difficult w/ 99% cut-off) and other tasks related to the OA. A few hours back, I got a call from the recruiter that I had cleared the assessment and tasks and said that they are looking for 2+ years of exp. I said I'm open to the SDE1 role and said she'll ask her colleagues. Idk what to expect now 😥 Amazon Amazon India
