The recruiter asked me a lot of questions about my experience and why I wanted to join McKinsey. Hope this helps

Was it mckinsey digital?

Its a screening call to asses your background. I was asked about a time when I had to be the interface between the business and technical team or something like it. Stalled for like 20 seconds before replying and rambled some story but clearly enough. Not nearly as stringent as the proper interviews, recruiter want to assess if you have decent chance to make it through the process. Be ready for a “tell me about yourself” and in general talk about your experience.

Going through this swell for McKinsey Digital, do you happen to any other tips McKinsey user?

Mine was just asking me to schedule interview dates and if I had any questions etc.

Was it a formal HR call? Or just introductory call? Because I already had one with them and they are asking for an additional one

I’ve been offered a position that I’m really excited about. Their initial offer was 10K more than the top of the salary range they gave me for the position when I asked during the interview process and at the top end of the salary requirements I set for myself. My partner thinks I should still negotiate for more even though I’m happy with the offer. Am I an idiot if I don’t negotiate in this case? Realistically, I don’t think I’d get much more than that, but should I negotiate out of principle?

Hi, I recently applied to a salesforce company and was selected for an interview. I had interviews with a recruiter, department manager and hiring manager and did well in them all.

What are the chances I do not get this job given that I did well in all 3 interviews leading to the final interview with the CEO?

Hi all, if you’re a mid or senior copywriter in LA looking to join an advertising/entertainment/tech startup on the ground floor, give a shout. You’ll be writing everything from ads featuring celebrities to blog posts, videos, ads for our platform, and probably a few hundred other things. You’ll also work with our parent company, a premier Hollywood production/management company. The role is partially remote (come for key meetings and brainstorms but work remote other days).
