What should I expect from a phone screening at McKinsey for lateral analyst application? I’ve heard about a phone case but the recruiter only mentioned discussing the role and my background (generalist analyst if that matters)

It’s not a trick. The call will be talking about your experience and interests in moving to McK plus recruiter talking about role and interview process.

Director interview after super day?

Had a super day last week and I thought it went well, partner sent back a nice message to my thank you note. Trying not to read too into it, but is it normal to have an interview with another director after having already interviewed with a director (and a MD)?

I did mention I have interest in a specific area with a director last week and it looks like this next director I’m interviewing primarily works in that area.

Hi Fishes. I'm selected in Synechron for Presales role in Pune and want to know how is Synechron as a company.
I have read a lot of negative reviews where it was mentioned that it has a no bench policy and Synechron fires a lot of people.
My role is not a client based role, as I'll be working with Synechron Sales/ Busiess team only.

Is there anyone here who has worked with Synechron in the past or is working currently? Can you please let know whether I should Synechron or not ?

Thank you !!
