When will I hear back from McKinsey first round?

Hello!  I applied for the Summer BA position at McKinsey's London office and had my first round interview two days ago.  It wasn't great and I think I bombed it but was just wondering how long they typically take to get back to you?  Thanks!

Hey there,

It should be relatively quick below 1 week. If you have not heard from them after 2 weeks, give them a call.

Fingers crossed!

Cheers,

Florian

Typically within a week, but in exceptional cases it might take a bit longer.

Hi there,

A week's wait would not be out of the ordinary. If you don't hear back within 1.5-2 weeks you can feel free to reach out.

Good luck to you!

Hello!

Usually they will answer withing a week, not more. 

It´s the time that it takes to get together and debrief, which is not always easy with those crazy agendas. 

Hope it helps!

Cheers, 

Clara

Hi there, 

it is completely random! might take from one to 3-4 weeks. Give them a week -10 days and reach out to HR if you still don't hear from them. 

Cheers,

Hi there,

McKinsey usually provides results quite fast. I would expect a reply within one week. After that, it is totally fine to follow up for an update.

Best,

Francesco

Hello,

Timing can vary according to a lot of variables but a good proxy is to wait at least before one week before reaching out to HR again.

Good luck!

The first round interviews are all happening this week and so you should hear back next week once they are all done.

Hi, it usually takes up to 2 weeks, however I recommend texting HR without worrying about bothering them: they are there to help
