Would anyone at McKinsey be willing to help me prepare for the PEI portion of interviewing? Have my super day coming up and just want to fine tune my understanding of the format. Thank you!

We technically aren't supposed to. But, if you go to the PEI portion of the website and take a look at the different elements we ask about, you should be able to backwards engineer it pretty easily. Recommend having a few different stories and examples mapped out and thought through for each element in advance of the interviews.

I guess my only question is if they’re looking for you to answer something within the three “buckets” do they give you an idea of which one they’re asking about? Or are you supposed to just give a story then go from there?

Interviewing for a CSM role. Need to present a mock case study to customers. Gist of it is that the customer is advertising with us, doing well, but also doing well advertising with another company. Im assuming the presentation should consist of a performance review, why they should stay with us, and upsell potential. I’ve never done anything like this.

What usually goes into these presentations? What kinds of questions should I prep for?
Any videos on example presentations on tips?
