Learn how your skills and interests fit into a meaningful career here. This event is designed for late-stage PhD or master’s students, postdocs, and individuals with fewer than ten years of work experience in any field. Apply here by July 15.
I was always interested in McKinsey. It felt like a place where I could learn to solve big problems. However, I was afraid I had to transform myself into a generic business professional to be eligible. Nothing proved less true when I discovered the diversity of McKinsey through Expedition 2018.
I got to know many specialists who bring their strengths to the firm: data scientists, PhDs, implementation coaches, designers. Regardless of your expertise and interests, you can find a group of like-minded people at McKinsey. I found my family among the consultants working in operations during Expedition 2018. I decided to leave my job & apply for McKinsey.
One year later, I feel at home in our Operations practice. I’ve worked on engineering problems with an ex-Formula 1 engineer and learned how to build peoples’ capabilities from the former manager of a 1000-employee plant. That's the power of Ops at McKinsey.
