Interviewed with Kearney in the Middle East at the same time I was recruiting for McKinsey (US). Took them a week to get back to me with a rejection email and didn’t offer feedback even when I reached out to thank the interviewers and asked for it. Are MBB the only consulting firms that give candidates feedback?

Sounds harsh but no one owes you feedback. If they’re willing sure, but the only time they do is if they want you but just need to perform better. If you understand how many interviews people have to do each month on top of all of their other work there isn’t enough hours in the day to provide feedback. Doesn’t mean people won’t do it, but you need to understand how it’s not possible for most

Yeah, obviously wish this wasn’t the case but it’s just a bandwidth thing. I had feedback after my Mck interviews bc it was only casing I needed to improve on. It’s easy to provide feedback if it’s something like that, but in terms of being a fit idk how you provide that feedback without sounding too rude.

Care to share about Kearney interview process and what types of cases to expect? I am in the interviewing process :)

on the way to an interview this morning eating a sandwich. I walked past a homeless man who had a stray cat perched on his lap. He asked for a bite of sandwich to feed them both as they hadn’t eaten in days. I gave the whole sandwich over and headed off to the interview. As I got to the interview room there was a large executive chair facing away from me. The chair turned and on top was a mirror. When looking in the mirror I could see the cat. I am the cat.
