McK 🐠, have my first round case (zoom) coming up in a few weeks. Any idea what the % pass rate is for moving onto final round, and the final round pass rate too?

This is a pointless question because it’s not a random probability, it’s a function of how good your are. The “pass rate” could be 10% of interviewees, but you could very well have a 75% chance because you’re a baller. Similarly, there might be 0 chance you make it through because you suck.

If anything, know the rate of people moving on is only going to either discourage you or give you a false sense of confidence, both of which distract you from the fact that it’s up to how good you are that determines if you’ll pass on.

McK doesn’t look at recruiting like this - you’re not scored against others but against the McK recruiting framework - hit the boxes, consistently, and you’ll move on

Even if I’d knew and could precisely tell you 50% - now what?

On average (across the world, across consulting positions, across years) it’s around 30% from first round to second round.

As said above though, there are a lot of variables and how is knowing going to change how you go into the interview?

Really hard to generalise, depends a lot on seniority/geography...

Usually 20-40% each round but obviously depends on performance of candidates
