What’s the average no. of days a recruiter at Mckinsey takes to inform the decision on Round 1 interview? Do they even inform if the decision is a “no” to Round 2?

Thank you, McK1. This gives me some hope. Any idea how many days on average it will take?

Usually a week max. Its getting the interview with partner that might take long due to availability.

In my humble experience, if you did well in an interview the recruiter will usually inform you as soon as they get the necessary feedback from whomever it may be. Don’t forget they get incentives to recruit good talent. Now the timeframe may differ by org and volume of candidates they are screening but it shouldn’t exceed a week in the early stages.

I interviewed on a Friday, and they called me that night with the offer

....after ONE interview! ^ wouldn’t that be badass

I was freaking out after round 1 as one of my friends heard that they got round 2 two full days before I did.

And that was campus recruiting. If you're trying to lateral I would guess the process is slower as it's a bit more ad hoc

14,367548

It depends in the type of recruiting (MBA, undergrad, expert, etc). Could be the same day or within a week

If it’s any consolation the time between interviewing and getting the call for round 1 interviews is longer if you are passed through. Because they have to wait and hear back from offices and match you with your final round office. So that can take some time. Turndowns are quicker to notify because they don’t need that information

Is there any advantage to telling a company you are interested in working for in the future where you decided to accept an offer from? Or does it not matter? I accepted an offer a week ago with a great company (Company A) that for this season in my life seems like a great fit and only strengthens what I have to offer company B down the road. Company B just sent me a request for interview and I want to keep the door open with Company B but they were just very late in extending an interview.

Hi fishes,

I received offer from two companies, MPHASIS(in Hyderabad) and Optimum Info System(as Cosultant for Shell India in Banglore). Optimum Info System offered 2.5L more CTC than Mphasis and ROLE is the same.

Which one would you opt considering that Mphasis is a bigger company(terms of employee count) than either Optimum Info System or Shell ?.

Which is a better company ?

One of the reasons I want to transition from industry to consulting (tier 1) is that I get frustrated when I have to collaborate with mediocre people. My assumption is that Tier 1 consulting firms hire really sharp people and if I can get in, I’ll be collaborating with folks on top of their game (not expecting much from clients). I’m aware there are personal aspects I need to work on like my mindset, patience etc etc, but I just get so frustrated with blatant stupidity.

A quick note about what I’ve experienced, in my decade long career, is the real advantage of MBB or FAANG - it gives you a shot at stretch roles that are outside your expertise. Not all the time or even most of the time compared to better candidates with specific experience for the role but gives you this wildcard shot at a vast array of opportunities.
