Hi, I have my HR phone screen at Mck in few days. What is the usual structure and what should be the focus of my prep?Tx

Hi,

I recommend clarifying the structure of the phone interview with HR. Depending on the office you will have a regular case with an HR or just the fit part, so the preparation is the same. It will be interviewer-led. Standard parts - Structure, calculations, creativity, recommendations. 

Don't worry too much about the HR - they are trained to do that.

In some countries they will also ask the simple personal questions:

• A story about yourself (walk them through your resume)
• Why Consulting
• Why McKinsey

After the case, you'll have a chance to ask your questions to the interviewer. It's important to prepare them in advance.

Best!

Hi there,

Basically, you should be ready for behavioral questions for this call. You can search in the QA section of the website and find those questions I posted before. Also, I am happy to offer you a  free 15 min call to inform you about this in detail. Please let me know if you are interested.

Best
