I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at McKinsey & Company (Athen, , Attika) in Oct 2009
Interview
Lately I took the numeracy and problem solving test.
The first consisted of around 20 questions needed to be asked in 30min while the problem solving test had around 30 questions to be asked in 70min.
Overall the test were not easy...You have to organise your time, answer fast and be afficient.
I passed the first round of teste and now I am attending the first round of interviews.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Percentage and probability questions together with some business reasoning.
Gave assessment. Waiting 1st round. But, here the assessment and resume are scored together to reach next round. Might take 1-3 weeks for invite. Assessment has only 20% - 30% weightage.
The recruiter was great! 2 rounds of 5 interviews, first was 2 associates, second was 3 partners. My first round, the interviewers spoke absolutely broken English and made it extremely difficult to understand what they are trying to say. My second interviewer was extremely rude as well. Honestly comes down to who interviews you and the case selection that will determine your fate
I interviewed at McKinsey & Company (San Francisco, CA)
Interview
Interview was a straightforward case study, and a McKinsey-specific Personal Experience Interview. This was difficult but I was able to prepare, so it was not too challenging after preparation. The team was very kind throughout the process and I was able to request information on the interview style ahead of time.
