McK London 1st round interviews

Hello PL community,

I have 1st round interviews coming up at McK London office next week. I was just wondering how long after the interview we should be looking to hear back. After they conclude all interviews or a few days after the interview date?

I've heard conflicting information from two members of staff at the local office?

Has anyone who interviewed in the past week heard back?

Hi there,

In general it should take a few days. However, you shouldn't get to concerned if it does take up to 1-2 weeks. After 2 weeks, if you haven't heard anything, you should feel free to reach out to HR for an update!

It can be both for McK London campus recruiting cycles but typically it will be after all first round interviews are finished as BA/JA final round is covered in four consecutive days in mid December.

Hi there,

It depends. Really, sometimes it takes them a few days to inform of the results, sometimes you don't get an update for a week while other candidates are already aware of whether they passed or not.

I just recommend you contacting HR if you don't hear from them after a week.

Do you need any further help?
