I applied online. I interviewed at McKinsey & Company (London, England) in Nov 2012
Interview
Two consecutive interviews, 1 hour each. Each interview started off with a personal experience question (30 min) and followed with a case interview (30 min). The personal experience questions are very detailed. They dig deep into the events to make sure they really understand what happened and what your actions were in the situation. The case interviews given were about the solar energy business and the automotive industry. Both were very interesting to solve.
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
Tell me about a time you had to convince someone to do something.
Didn't get to the interview stage so I can't say how the process is. Didn't get pass the game phase. Hopefully, next time, I'd be able to give a better experience.
2 Rounds of interview, PEI+ Case study. Final round is in person. PEI questions are easy, but the cases are very hard. Timeline took about 3 months between receiving the OT and Final round.

Question 1
Tell me a time you worked with people from different background
General call with HR representative discussing experience and motivation for the role. More like standard screening instead of typical interview. Be sure to give a thorough background of yourself and have solid motivation.
