Hi there! What questions should I expect for an initial introductory interview with McKinsey's HR (he wrote in the email that we will discuss the resume and possible next steps). Thanks in advance!

Hey there,
This is a simple resume screening interview conducted by a few offices now.
There are usually 4 types of questions asked
- Guide me through your resume
- Why consulting
- Why McKinsey
- What skills have you learned that will be useful for practice XYZ
- still prepare for the typical other recruiter questions
Additionally, they will give you a chance to ask questions to the recruiter. Think about things that interest you and from which you can benefit
- Next steps and process incl. timeline
- Preparation advice
- Change in work/life balance due to COVID
- Future outlook
- anything else you are curious about
Cheers,
Florian
