Is it okay to use the same PEI story twice in multiple rounds of McKinsey interviews if the questions they ask dont fit neatly into one of the categories? Sometimes the same story can answer multiple types of questions, but not sure if they would frown upon this

It’s not recommended, but if it’s all you have then go for it.

just not in the same day!

In different rounds- yes
In different interview, same round- no

Wondering what people think about my situation. I’ve been offered a role with a company. The job description didn’t mention college degree as a requirement. On my CV I have a section listed as “Education” and under it I have “Business Studies” with the university name and the 3 years that I attended the course (2.5 to be exact). It’s a 4 year degree and under this I have my High School equivalent with the years I attended there. The education wasn’t mentioned in the interviews. Continued below.
