Hi All,
Need some help!
I cleared ‘Solve’ the McKinsey game assessment and have a technical round scheduled for tomorrow.
Can someone advise how is the technical round and the type of questions I can expect.
It is for the position ‘knowledge analyst - procurement’

Hi , please share your experience with solve, any tips n tricks . I have an upcoming game round

I cleared it fortunately. I would say not much prep needed because the 1st game - ecosystem will test your presence of mind and calculation skills- something you can’t really practise beforehand. But try to choose animals that can survive in the same elevations and temperature range and your job is half done. For the second game, you can practise by playing the tower defence games. I found the exam way simpler than expectations. Keep your cool, don’t panic and don’t click around aimlessly because I have been told they measure the number of clicks to mark your temperament. Not sure if that’s true though.

Just received 2 offers that I’m weighing, both in Advertising tech:

2. FAANG, Sales Account Manager role (similar to my current role)
I have 5-6 YOE and have been in an Account Management role for most of my career - is it worth making the switch to PMM at a smaller firm or sticking with what I know at a FAANG? Both would have relatively similar comp. Thanks in advance for your input!
