Was recently contacted by a recruiter for a McKinsey New Ventures Software Engineer role. I was wondering if anyone knew more about this group outside of what you can get from a quick Google search. There doesn't seem to be a lot of information out there, specifically for a new undergrad hire.

Anyone know anything about the comp, travel, interview process for McKinsey New Ventures?

Looking to transfer into a client associate role (unregistered at the moment, but willing to obtain). Currently have ~1.5 YOE in valuation (financial statement analysis, modeling, etc.) I get that those skills could be unrelated to a CSA role, but I think there could be some similarities. Does anyone happen to have a referral or can anyone give DM me some insight into what a CSA role would look like? I appreciate it.

Hi fishes,
I had interviewed for Cognizant and I was asked to submit my documents for offer letter release. This happened on the same day as my interview(Friday 6th May).

I’d just rebuy all of the same stocks immediately… am I missing something?
