Hey guys. I have been applying to Amex for the past 1 year. Tried applying on the portal, through referrals and even hr consultants reached me regarding the roles since I have a relevant profile. But not once have I been shortlisted or called for an interview. What could be the problem?
PS: I have gotten calls from every other company for the same profile but not amex. Can't be a problem with the profile. Seems something dicey which I'm not aware of.American Express

McKinsey & Company Does level and/or office matter for referrals at McKinsey & Company? A friend is willing to refer at the Associate level in my target office though I did not get any traction w/ the referral last year. I'm a Veteran so I also recognize there may be a resume translation issue despite the prior version getting me interviews with BCG and Bain. I have updated the resume since - though still wondering if there's anything else I can do to strengthen my case. Thank you in advance for any advice.

Historically qualitative, but it really depends on what role / level you are looking at. A few things to note, however, is that NH did not give its employees 401k match for FY2025, as well as a downward spiral in terms of culture (many folks are leaving voluntarily right now). Raises are generally 1-5% (at most). You'll have very good WLB generally at NH (and some great perks like WFH if not on client travel, etc.). Please feel free to DM me if you have any specific questions on culture, working at NH, etc.
Whatever you do don't join this firm! 🙈
I joined a year or two ago at an entry level consulting position. My case study was pretty standard.
They gave the problem via email 24 hours prior to my interview time. They asked me to solve a question and then have 3-4 slides made in PowerPoint presenting the problem, my approach and the recommendation/ solution (as if you were presenting it to the client).
During the interview they are looking for your presentation, communication and problem solving skills. After giving my brief presentation, they give you new information and ask if that would change your recommendation. You explain yes or no and why.
Much easier than any of the Big 4 or MBB or other firms that you would prep for. And the problem they gave me was realistic. Just do your prep work and make the slides look good and you will be good to go.
Why in the world would you want to join Nh?
I would reach out to your network and find 2 to 3 people there and have recently left. It is an absolute sinking ship.
