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.

Does anyone know if the personalized application link is sent out automatically? Or does a recruiter need to approve the referral first? I'm just trying to figure out if my referral will ever be seen by a recruiter with a "turned down" status...

We’re not really hiring EMs anymore

It’s for the BA level (experienced hire)

Just have your referral ask the recruiter. They know, and can find out, best.

Read that McK is paying 2K higher than BCG this year which means BCG will probably raise again next year to at least match. However, they can’t just copy McK with 2K to match because that would look bad so they’ll have to beat it again. Then McK and Bain will follow. Barring a devastating recession, I’m guessing this means MBB is all getting raises again next year?
