Hi there,
McKinsey onboarding is structured but also designed to be engaging. As a new grad hire, here’s what you can expect:
Immersion Days
- Typically office-level, before you go to global training.
- Focused on introducing you to your home office culture, leadership team, and support resources (professional development managers, staffing coordinators, mentors).
- You’ll meet your start group (other new joiners) and often do light case/skill workshops, networking events, and team-building activities.
- It’s a chance to get comfortable with the people and the local environment you’ll be working in.
Embark Program
- This is the global onboarding, usually held with new consultants from many different offices around the world.
- You’ll go through structured training on problem-solving, communication, and consulting toolkits.
- Expect simulations of client work, group exercises, and coaching from experienced consultants.
- The emphasis is also on building your international network – you’ll spend a lot of time bonding with peers over dinners, activities, and social events.
Is it fun?
- Yes – many people remember onboarding as one of the highlights of their first year. It’s lighter and more social than real project work.
- You’ll get to travel (if in-person), meet inspiring people, and form friendships with your cohort.
Overall, onboarding is a mix of learning, networking, and fun – designed to make you feel part of McKinsey before the real client work starts.
Best,
Evelina
