McKinsey & Company Incoming at McKinsey & Company.

Can any McK fishes shed light on 1) how staffing works after your first few projects and 2) best practices on networking to join projects in my desired industry/function? TYIA

There’s PD who will supposedly help you - experiences vary, but I wouldn’t put much faith in them.

As a new hire, do your best to get EM+ to love you, and let them know what you want to do. They’ll *generally* try to introduce you to colleagues they know who do work you want to do.

The best thing you can have as a new hire is a great reputation.

New to Toronto, moved to the west end of town/ just past - in Etobicoke.

Everyone is scattered throughout (Hamilton, Barrie, Lyle, Newmarket, North York). Don’t want anything too fancy but don’t really know where or what is good and not downtown.


Any recommendations? (Open to GTA of course).

Incoming AC at Bain, previously was deciding between Bain and McKinsey. But, ultimately chose Bain for the culture despite McKinsey being aligned with my professional goals of working in the government. I was looking on LinkedIn and didn’t find many people who are working in the White House after Bain, but found countless examples for McKinsey. Would it be difficult to try to transition to working in government after a few years at Bain? Any thoughts?
