Hi,
You need to follow up with a principal, but that's a common situation for NY. Chances of being invited even with a referral there are pretty low.

Have you followed-up? If not, you definitely should.
PS: Not every referral leads to an interview, even from Principals.

I interviewed with McKinsey last year but did not receive an offer. I'm now reapplying and wanted to ask whether it's generally acceptable to reuse PEI stories that I shared during my previous interviews, assuming they're still my strongest examples. Thank you for the help!
