McKšŸ , I have Round 1 interviews scheduled.. a 45 min one + a 30 min one. Which one is the case interview vs. the general interview? I've asked my coordinator to clarify but haven't heard back. Thx!

How does it matter? It'll be one after the other, can be in either order

The 45 min one is tomorrow and the other is later next week

Are you post-MBA?

Recruiter will help answer any of your questions and it won't impact your chances. Feel free to ask them anything. 45m is likely the case interview.

And google "personal experience interview" to understand the questions (one per interview) and prepare for that one. There's no "walk me through your resume," etc. PEI interviews are each one about one experience and then you'll be probably a lot more about that (e.g., "what did you say then?"). Use a situation you can talk in detail about rather than one that sounds impressive but was 10 years ago (or, worse, is made up).

The longer one is the case

I didn't know there was a separate PEI at McKinsey - doesn't each interview have fit and case parts?

What's PEI? Personal experience interview? (Interview today got rescheduled to next week)

P1- no I'm not

I joined in Accenture as level 8. Prior to joining, I was apporached by a project, and they seemed to not convince with my lack of knowledge about the role hence they dropped me even after contacting couple of times. Now I have got call from another one and they also seem to be not fully sure because my last role was very different. My question is how difficult is it to get a project in Accenture? Will this interviews continue? Also, what are the chances of me getting a suitable role?

Hey everyone, What would you say is the difference between an account director and a senior account manager. I was just promoted as an account director when I quit my job and moved to the U.K and now having so much trouble finding a job as an AD.

Need some advice. I was asked to apply for a senior digital marketing specialist role (the lowest title Iā€™ve applied for, looking mid-senior level).

To me, if I interviewed for the senior title, and I can clearly do the qualifications needed since you offered me the role, I should have that title. Thoughts? Supposedly the reg. specialist role is senior in their org. structure.
