McKinsey & Company Interview Questions

As an experienced hire, McKinsey kindly arranged for a ten interviews with associates, partners and a couple of senior partners/ directors. I didn’t know at the time but they arranged my schedule because they had a partners meeting on the same day and tried to accomodate my desire to join because I had job offers from other companies but wanted a chance to join the firm. All interviews were different but most conducted case method and problem solving interviews. Really enjoyed meeting all the talented members and was a bit worn out at the end. Very impressive individuals with very diverse experiences. Thought I did alright but wasn’t sure whether they would extend an offer.

First they send you a link to complete an online assessment that has multiple games in it and you need to complete the tasks according to given instructions. Then they invite you for a personal interview where you need to give an example of a time in which you demonstrated the asked skill, and then solve a case study. I had two consecutive interviews. In the second one there was only a case study.

The final round was 3 sets of interviews, each with a case and behavioral part. All interviews were with either Associate Partners or Partners. While intense, the interviewers made me feel comfortable throughout.

Initially there is a screening process. Following the screening process there are three rounds of interviews. The initial one is with business analysts and the last two with executives. Overall a pleasant experience. I wasn't accepted and received a feedback on my application.

Lengthy and thorough - McK seeks to deeply vet potential on analytical and conceptual thinking. 2 screening interviews, followed by multiple case interviews that required significant amount of preparation. The process was fair, but challenging - a large time and effort commitment is required.

I have got the hacker rank assessment and it was pretty easy. it was a gaming challenge that was very easy to perform and had a proper gaming interface and didn't need any kind of coding to perform it.

Multiple Interviews, each interview with two stages, a personal experience first stage, based on work experience, each interview had a different approach, and a case related part with arithmetic problems.

Online Assessment for the Data Engineer position. This is the first step in the interview process after submitting the application. The total duration of the test is 125 minutes. I had 5 questions. (2-database, 2-coding, 1-managing scenario)

Initial talk with HR, 4 x PEI and case interiews, where two were with partners Overall great support throughout and they scheduled a case prep session with an alumni I New York to help me prepare

Complicated and time-consuming, yet really challenging. It is a really great company with a lot of very talented people. The company does a lot of excellent values and does a lot of amazing things.
