My 1st case interview for Mckinsey had been cancelled and I had emailed the recruiter if I might hear back from then soon regarding new slot or if it is an indefinite hold on the process. It has been 4 days, now it is the weekend. Shall I email the recruiter again this coming Monday? In their email, they said they will get back to me once they have an update (which I had emailed 4 days ago).

Ohh I hate to feel like this, checking my email every hour for an update.

Hi,
Anyone joined epam anywhere for Angular/React.
Can you please share client interview experience?

Does anyone in-house care about cover letters? I had an interview last week where the interviewer (a tech person and nonlawyer) said they found it odd that I submitted a cover letter. Aren’t they basically required? Or is this just a law firm thing?

Hello!
I was wondering what kind of contractual or other barriers I might face if I apply for one of the big 4 while working on a project with them in my current company.
I am not too involved in the project but I was in a few meetings and went on a field trip with them as well.
The position that I am applying for is in a different team and city.
Will this considered “poaching” if the consulting firm hires me? Would they need to talk to my current employer?

Hi Fishes,
Which is better?
LinkedIn Easy Apply Or Applying to the same opening through Referral

Random, but valid/persistent thought.

After 2 years of a pandemic and working independently for many years, I am not feeling interviews AT ALL. There are points in the interview where I want to just say "Look! Either hire me or don't".

How can I get over this feeling? I'm over the whole "stand in the line of fire to prove how good I am" bs. Any recommendations for getting over this or possible industries to pivot into to avoid bs interview processes and ghosting?

If a job posting says 2 yrs experience, is that a firm cutoff? Can you apply if you have more than 2 yrs experience?

Currently interviewing with Amazon for an associate corporate counsel role. After the first round, I was quickly moved on to the written exercise but its now been a month since I submitted it and I haven’t received any update on my application despite following up with HR once. Wondering if anyone is in a similar boat and whether I should just write it off as a refusal… if anyone here works at Amazon, would be helpful to know if this is common. Thanks!

So is it better to use a recruiter when you have a specific goal or if you're just feeling out what opportunities are on Deck

Here is my issue. I left my firm this summer for an opportunity I should have known was to good to be true. I realized it wasn’t what I was led to believe. Was able to return to my old firm. The return was “a favor”. But includes conditions. I am not happy, and need a change and honestly more money now rather than in 6-8 months. I knew it would be ruff when I went back but I didn’t expect it to be this ruff. Is my recent history gonna be a huge hurdle to even get an interview?

As a traditional consultant at McK can you work on studies or eminence at the McKinsey Global Institute?

What does the progression track look like for post-mba consultants at MBB? Specifically, are there notable differences in promotion timing amongst the firms? I’ve noticed on LinkedIn that several BCGers have reached principal level in 3.5 years (2 as consultant, 1.5 as PL) whereas it seems to take a minimum of 4 years but sometimes even 5 for McK to reach AP level (which I believe is the equivalent?) Is this an accurate assessment?

Are there any Los Angeles based MBB 🐠? I want to get internal perspective on each firm and hear more about the culture. If anyone is available to meet, I will treat you to lunch at Cafe Gratitude ☺️.

Any harm in spamming referrals? I keep getting asked for them and for a few I feel like they're not prime candidates - but they're friends/ex-colleagues so don't want to turn them down.

Any chance of things blowing back?

Hey fish! would anyone from McKinsey Transformation be willing to chat? Current SVP looking at a VP/EM role. McKinsey & Company

I have CDD expertise and looking to connect with mbb individuals who are willing to talk about the practice and differences at a T2 vs MBB. I can bring pretty good value and looking to pursue a long term career position at one of the MBB!

Mckinsey 🐟 could use your help. Post MBA at a Tier-2, and currently in the process for a few industry corp strategy roles. Got a reach out for MI role at the Associate level (lateral). Is the MI role worth delaying transition to industry? Current exit drivers - dissatisfaction of work/project selection (industry focus and topics), updated leadership direction/strategy, total disregard for boundaries (esp bad since WFH). TIA

Does MBB have the same problems that other firms do with regards to experienced hires getting way more pay than homegrown hires? Or do they keep the pay bands consistent?

Bit of a silly question but does networking even help you get to the interview stage at MBB if you don't have a referral? ( trying to determine if a referral is the only end goal).
If it does- how? (Do folks share with the firm who reached out to them, etc?)

Context: from a non-target and have been networking with people/will be networking over the next few weeks

Are there any great perks for MBA sponsorship? Stipends, cost of living, etc? Is there a difference for 1 year or 2 year programs?

Can someone please explain how McKinsey’s BA -> EM works? Seems to be a general lack of info on this topic
What percentage of folks get it?
How does the role compare to PL/SM at BB?(I find it insane someone can do the same work only 2-3 years out of undergrad)
What is the comp for a BA EM vs post mba EM?
Also skipping to EM sounds insane for getting to partner faster (assume it’s very very rare??)

What is the best MBB office for each of the following cities: Dallas, Atlanta, Houston and Austin? Please also specify why.

I’m starting at MBB shortly as an associate, laterally from Big 4. Husband & I are trying to decide if we want to buy a house and settle in the city we’re moving to - I am potentially interested in making partner (if possible) but also open if a good exit opportunity comes my way. Exit opps would certainly be in a different location. Anyone have thoughts on ideal length to stay at MBB?
