I'm a student in the US and I finished my final interview for McKinsey's 2026 Summer BA Internship in one of their Chinese offices two weeks ago. I think I did quite well and the partner said I would hear back after 2-3 days of deliberation, but it has been two weeks and I have not heard anything yet. China did just have a work holiday that lasted from when I interviewed until last week, but that still means they have had 5 business days. Is this timeline normal? When would it be appropriate to contact my recruiter?

Congratulations on making it to the final round and hope that you get the good news soon. I know how nerve-wrecking it is to be waiting for the recruiter call. Given that the final round is usually done by Partners, its normal that it could take up to 2 weeks and sometimes more for the recruiter to be able to schedule a decision call and bring the final round interviewers together for a discussion. Just keep your ringer on and watch for your phone.
Hope you get the acceptance call and keep us posted.
