McKinsey & Company McKinsey & Company I have my first round of case interviews coming up in 2.5 weeks and recruiter just emailed if I can have a call with her today or tomorrow. What could this mean? Vacancy already filled..?

Does Google NYC offer day care? I’m a recent parent and got a verbal offer but I’ve realized that I never asked about parent benefits throughout the interview process. Not a big deal just curious about it.

Recruiter asked to schedule call today after final round. Super nervous, wish me luck!! 🤞

I’m graduating in December, with a background in environmental economics and policy. Consulting didn’t work out this cycle. Made it to final rounds for Bain and Kearney but in the end didn’t get an offer. I want to recoup and try again, but I’m worried that once I’m out of undergrad the door will be closed to starting in consulting.

What can I do to make this happen? I have friends and connections at Bain and Kearney and the other firms as well, but not sure if it’s feasible now.

Hi Guys,

Need some information from Capgemini guys.

I finished my L1, L2 and HR rounds last week. The HR had requested for the documents and I sent them on the same day. From there how many days will it take to release the offer letter.

Hi all I need advise please help! Long post sorry in advance. I contacted a director in a group that I previously interviewed for months ago and they ended up hiring internally. Said person was so pleased to hear from me and told me there were open roles so they were going to refer me personally to the recruiting person (Cotd)

I’ve had 2 rounds of interviews with a small law firm in NY and I thought they went great. The interviewer told me they would let me know whether or not I made it to the final round in 2 weeks. It’s been almost 4 weeks now. I don’t know if/how to reach out…

Hi fishes

I have been selected for Consultant position for Mastercard. Its been 10 days since I have submitted my documents.
HR called once last week for salary negotiation but hasn’t called back since.

Should i be worried?

Is it appropriate to add a recruiter on linked in without sending a message? Mainly to follow any opportunities they may post for the future?

CFP study programs:

I'm a little confused on Danko - does he offer a self-study option for the coursework requirement? On his website it looks like each module has a 4-day virtual class which I wouldn't be able to attend due to working full time. Does this program also include self-study material, and the classes are just supplementary/optional? I was also looking at Dalton for self-study and Danko for test prep. Thoughts?

TIA

I regret not applying to Harvard. I never thought I’d get into a top school and then got into wharton with a 100k fellowship - which changed my entire perspective. It sucks thinking “what if…”. I just didn’t have the confidence and thought wharton was a reach so why bother with H/S 🙃 hope this inspires someone to just shoot their shot - you never know

Hey all, having issues with interviewing this year. I’ve been passed over every opportunity I really want and I’m unsure how to regroup and move forward.

Are they scheduling work based green card for interviews now? I just got a notification that interview is ready to be scheduled.

Random question but do you let your kids hang out in your bedroom and use your master bath if applicable? My kids always seem to want to use our bathroom instead of theirs and my spouse doesn't care but I grew up with my parent's room basically being off limits and think I'd prefer it that way.

Have you ever cried for joy at work ? A promotion, a deal, something that you worked towards relentlessly, and it all finally falls in place and you break down briefly with sheer joy?

Are people continuing to work if they have the symptoms of COVID-19 but not yet bad enough to be hospitalized? Curious how accommodating firms are being on that front.

Feel like audit scheduling is always done on a knifes edge in that the timeline and staff schedules are enough so that if everyone works 60 hour weeks and no issues are identified then it can be filed on time. But even small things that increase the work can wildly throw off the schedule and cause hours to skyrocket for the staff on the job. No real point here, just ranting.

I wasn’t sure which bowl to solicit advice from so hoping to catch a bite here. I’m currently in ID. Of course, I want OUT! My interests are L&E and corporate. My options are 1) wait it out where I am in hopes to switch to L&E or 2) in house oil and gas industry transactional work. What would you do and why? I figured this bowl being specific to Texas would understand importance of oil and gas industry.

I want to change my Base location, what is the process now a days ?

McKinsey referral system glitch?

I got a referral from an EM over a month ago. He says my candidate status showed "turned down" immediately following the submission. He suspects it was because the status from my previous application to McKinsey over 2 years ago got pulled into the system automatically. Till now I still haven't received the application link and no recruiter has been assigned. Kind of lost about what to do next.

McKinsey 🐠 I have a 30 min phone screen for a role in McKinsey’s Technology & Digital practice. What can I expect to come up and what can you guys tell me about T&D that I should know ahead of time? TYIA!

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?

I referred someone I truly see potential in and have also helped him with resume and casing. And he didn't even get invited for an interview. He stayed optimistic and passionate about the job, and asked me again for advice about reapplying this year. I don't know what to advice him. His resume looks good but didn't even get a chance for interview
