How does McKinsey train their new hires? For example, at Deloitte they would go through Deloitte University and have onboarding. Wondering what kinds of programs are in place at McK.

Just kidding. First week at McK is embark, a training program. Additional training programs are spread throughout employment at the Firm

I'm sure it's a week of e-modules and webinars...

I think it’s a really good training- it helped me better understand how to approach problems and problem solving. They are always in person- held in various offices

Haha but real talk, depending on what level you are there's online training for a mini-MBA or business essentials, and then the first week is embark which is a training program but really mostly to induct you to the ways of the Firm and soft skills

McK folks might be reluctant to share that

How good are they? Like in person seminar or webinars
