How likely is it to get hired into McKinsey as an experienced hire? I’m told I’m going to be one of the ppl they look at once Mba hiring is over but just wanna make sure EH is a ~big thing for McK

Having compared notes and worked with several ex-McK people, honestly just move to industry now. Does McK have a better brand and the allure that comes with it? No question. But if you’re unhappy in consulting here, guess what, your day to day will be pretty damn similar and you’ll probably be unhappy there too.

OP you applied every six months? Never thought about that but might try now actually

Pwc 1 No, I’ve kinda applied online almost every 6 months and one day got a intro call to see if I’d be interested in coming in as an exp hire. Just got an email that said they’d be picking up this process shortly

Sweet, thanks!

I was considering leaving consulting after nearly 4 years but once McKinsey said I may be getting an interview, I decided to hold on. I’ve always wanted to get in there and I feel like I owe it to myself after several years of chasing this opportunity. Was looking forward to the 40 hour weeks in the corporate world but guess it’ll have to wait

Ow did you go through a referral?

Great thanks!

🍿

Note

McK takes EHs all the time- super common. Your level depends on what level you’re coming over as, and how much experience you have

Hi fishes, need help

I'm working as a business tech analyst at ZS since 1.5 years and I have worked extensively in SQL and in automation using Python.

Anyone who can help me with a referral for data science/ML engineer roles? Current CTC is 13L.
