McKinsey & Company Has Mckinsey met BA headcount quota for the year/did they freeze hiring? I interviewed and got to last round last year, and applied again with a referral two months ago but haven’t heard anything from recruiting. Last year I heard back within 1 month of referral drop. I would’ve thought with my 1 more year of experience I should be able to get an interview easily.🥲 McKinsey & Company

Here’s my completely unscientific take on venture capitalists’ backgrounds based on what I’ve seen (subject to availability/confirmation/other bias):
* Finance: IB or PE experience
* Consulting: Growth strategy or ops experience
* Startups: Founder or early stage experience
* Industry: Tech or maybe P&L mgt experience?
Seems like people in venture capital have one or more of these in their background. Does this square with what other people have seen?
