The documentation you send will allow us to decide how to go about your process. As a first step, you will be invited to take a test and to participate in a set of individual interviews with various consultants representing a broad and diversified experience.
The purpose of this test is to assess the specific problem-solving skills that we consider key to a successful career at McKinsey. The test, which takes about 75 minutes, does not require a specific academic or professional background. The use of calculators or computers during the test is not allowed.
The goal of the interviewing process, during which you will meet some of our consultants, is twofold:
- McKinsey will learn more about your skills and experiences, so we can identify the viability of pursuing a professional career with us.
- you will know exactly what we do and who we are, which will allow you to make an educated decision on whether to pursue a professional career with us.
In each interview, we will ask you to solve a case study. In the end of the interviewing process, you will receive feedback from the interviewers and information on the next steps.
Throughout the interviews, we will look forward to assessing the following skills:
- Problem analysis and structuring
- Number crunching
- Entrepreneurship
- Leadership
- Team spirit
- Proactive attitude and commitment
- Communication
- Creativity
