You will hear from colleagues whose paths look different on paper and in practice. Some started in engineering, some in law, some in economics, and some from entirely different fields. They will share how they got started, how their roles evolved, and what helped them move forward.

That range is part of the point. At McKinsey, teams are deliberately built with people who think differently. A former engineer, a policy graduate, and a data scientist might be working side by side on the same problem. That mix isn’t accidental, it’s how better answers get built.

For you, that means you don’t need a single ‘right’ background to get started. What matters is how you think, how you approach problems, and how you grow from there.

To join all sessions, you only need to register once. We will share access links for each session ahead of time. You can register by June 21, 2026 to attend the full series, or sign up up to two days before an individual session.
