On McKinsey's dashboard, does the status change from "Submitted" if you are rejected? Or if it's still at "Submitted" does that mean I got ghosted?

When I got an offer mine just stayed as submitted until it eventually closed some months after my offer

It's a trap! McKinsey uses advance tracking mechanisms to see how often you are refreshing your status, how often you are needless clicking on the status field thinking it might change, how long you are active on the page, etc.

They then feed it into a state of the art cognitive AI machine model to spit out a probability that you are McKinsey man/woman material. Calm under pressure, willingness to follow leadership to the end (and no scruples advising pharma companies on how to get the next generation addicted or the next major authoritatian government on how to stay in power).

Or you know it's just a status field that the recruiter may update if they remember.

If you are rejected...the status would be closed. Your application is under review.

Hate to revisit but found this thread through search
Is a “Closed” status on the McKinsey dashboard after final round interviews a certain sign of rejection?

Thanks all. It's been 3 weeks since I submitted too if that means I've been ghosted 😭

Nah McKinsey will not ghost you. They will notify you even if it's a rejection. It's probably still under review. I think they are just overwhelmed by the resumes pouring in.

Some folks hear back from BCG for interview after 2 months, so there is chance unless they explicitly tell you that you're rejected.

I know another AA that handles 3+ people but idk if she’s hourly or salary. Any thoughts?

Need advice. Interviewing for an internal role to lead a team adjacent to my current team. I’m trying to prepare for the interview, during which I’ll be asked to share my plan for the team. I’ve worked with two of the people on the team who will report to whomever gets this job. I’d like to ask them about the team and what they want/wish were different, but I’m not sure it’s wise to tell them I’m interviewing to be their boss. Not does it feel right to ask under false pretences. Thoughts?
