I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at McKinsey & Company (Jersey City, NJ) in Aug 2024
Interview
1st round interview composed of two back-to-back 45min interview sessions. Each session has PEI+Case with an associate or EM. I got one standard case and another wild card case.
Final round interviews composed of three 45min interview sessions in one day with associate partner or partner. It is quite similar to the 1st round except the partner may or may not pressure test you. You may get interrupted multiple times while you were sharing your stories, or the interviewer may not put the video on.
