McKinsey & Company How likely is McKinsey to rescind an offer if there's a recession/downturn before my start date? Received an Associate offer with a start date early in the Fall. But I'm worried about the offer being rescinded due to the ongoing McK scandals/issues and a potential recession in the making (which may prompt them to freeze hiring and/or renege offers).
Has this happened to anyone before at McKinsey, offer getting rescinded due to economic/company downturn? A bit worried

It’s pretty chill. Be prepared to explain your personal value proposition - “how will you immediately add value to the firm”. Otherwise, it’s more about fit and being yourself.
PM1 a lot of more junior folks are great at financial modeling and program management off the rip. Industry expertise based off major can have nice value as well.

Any insights on what your cases tend to look like?
Whether someone does a case or not depends on the role and practice area in which they are recruiting.
Be prepared for all the usual. But also have a story that can relate to the firm’s values and culture. How does “when it really matters” resonate with you?
Thank you! I didn't know about "when it really matters".
I can think of a few experiences at my current job and my beliefs that should "resonate". Does that sound right or am I misconstruing the word?
Get ready to travel a lot with them.
PI?
Interview questions will definitely start with, "Why did you choose to apply for this job?". Questions will focus on your problem-solving skills, time-management and questions about yourself. But don't think too much. Just be yourself and be confident.
