Hi. I have 20+ years of experience both in consulting and in-industry. I have a contact at McKinsey that I connected with that is willing to make an introduction/referral for me. A few questions: 1). What level should I be targeting. I’m willing to take a lateral to a degree because. . .well, it’s McKinsey, but I don’t want to come in too low salary wise and somehow undercut the value of the experience and the roles I’ve already held (VP/DVP). As such - is Associate Partner too low? 2….

1) It depends on the quality of your experience. Could range from Associate all the way to Partner. I would target the level that matches your current compensation.

2) Same format. You need to go all out studying for case interviews.

Similar situation for me recently. 20+ years experience, mostly in a specialized industry + a couple of years of management consulting. Said my interview process would be 2 first round interviews with case study in each, 2 second round interviews with case study in each, final interview with 1 case study. Went through the first interview and I withdrew myself. Personal situation dictated that decision but also did not feel it was the path for me.

like

(Continuing). 2nd. Question: Does McKinsey still have the same level of case interviews for experienced hires? I’m trying to determine if I need to go into full-on study/pre-mode if things move forward. Or, does 20 years of experience count for anything:-)

What's your salary requirement? Posting that could help people provide more info.

$200 - 225 base

If your experience would justify partner that would be better. Is your contact a partner that you could discuss with them?

Contact is an AP. The recruiter is pushing for AP. I was previously a DVP for a health plan so have depth in healthcare for sure.

Hey Bowl,
I work for a late stage(ipo) start up, earlier this year we were acquired & since then they got rid of our yearly bonuses and gave us an ESOP grant.
2 RIFs later we are almost bare bones. Since we are coming up on our usual yearly evaluations many of us assumed (with multiple conversation from our managers) that pay raises and promotions were due.
In a recent All hands we found out that this year there will be no pay raises nor promotions based off merit. Is it time to jump ship?

Hi all,

Do firms match offers from other Big 4s for campus hires? I’ve received a campus offer from both

Would it be a bad move to let them know about the other offer and try negotiating? I feel it wont make a difference in the long run, but at the same time I don’t want to leave any money on the table if possible.

Thanks!
