I am preparing for a first round case interview with McKinsey (in the US). If any candidates have appeared in McKinsey interviews recently or any coaches have had their students appear for the interview, and are willing to share experiences, I have following questions:
1. How close is the level of case difficulty to the example cases on McKinsey website? Similar or more difficult?
2. How do exhibits work on a phone interview (i specifically asked and the recruiter said it’s over the phone, not zoom)?
3. How does one assess their preparedness prior to the interview? I am able to solve cases when practicing with my peers, but not sure if it simulates the actual case interview experience.
