McKinsey BA London R1 invite

Hi there,

Yes, McKinsey London typically sends first-round invites in waves, especially for Business Analyst campus recruiting. The first wave usually goes to candidates who completed their applications early or were pre-screened (like referrals or standout profiles), and then more invites follow over the next few days as they finalize the shortlist.

Winning their case competition is a strong plus — it usually flags you as a high-potential candidate, so there’s still a good chance your invite could come in a later batch. I’d wait a few more days before worrying; it’s common for invites to roll out gradually across the week.

Best,
Evelina

Hi there,

There's no definite answer. Sometimes it comes out in one wave and sometimes over several batches. Best to wait for a bit more and reach out to the HR to confirm. Until you've received a rejection, nothing is certain.
