"The exposure I had to people and problems in my 11 years at McKinsey was equivalent to double or triple that of a more traditional corporate job."
Eileen Serra, Executive Vice President,
JP Morgan Chase
McKinsey alum

McKinsey has been a top destination for people with master's degrees in business administration for almost 80 years. That’s because our MBAs have the independence to follow their passions while working on the problems that matter most to the organizations that matter most.

What to expect

Consultants with MBAs typically join McKinsey as associates and participate in one client study at a time. You can join as a generalist, working across a broad range of industries and functions to develop knowledge and build skills, or you can build specific expertise within a practice.

Impact. Opportunity. Growth.

You will accelerate your career by working alongside exceptional people on critical issues—that’s where the learning and the impact happens.

You’ll have the freedom to determine your own career path, wherever it may take you.

And you’ll have access to the world’s most influential network of leaders, who will rely on your help to tackle their challenges.
