I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at McKinsey & Company in Mar 2021
Interview
Five interviews: Three first round and two second round
Case study and fit question each time
On case studies: unconventional industries and topics, Typical frameworks did not help at all, and what was valued is on the spot thinking / structuring and the discussion that stemmed from that.
Partner case studies were a bit less structured
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about the most challenging objective you had to achieve working with a group of people?
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.
