I applied through university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at McKinsey & Company (Beijing, Beijing) in Aug 2011
Interview
I did the PST and only finished two cases, guessed the third, pass on to the second round. The group break out was more fun and more relaxed. Although they say it's non-evaluative but do your best as they do take notes of each person.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
some math calculations in the PST and even the first part on understanding the information of each case. Also lots of graphs and tables.
Had 2 rounds. First was a virtual interview with 2 sessions back-to-back. One case and one PEI in each. Second was a final in person round, with 3 sessions back-to-back with one case and one PEI each.

Question 1
Tell me about yourself
Behavioral questions - There are only 4 PEIs which are listed in their career prep site
3 step process. first was a screening then followed with around 7 case studies. the case studies ranged in varying industries and scope. this was done over a course of 2 months
Too long, too many rounds, too many people interviewing you and you need to follow up several times in order to get a response. They give you the materials to prepare which is good, but everything else is suboptimal
