Hello, 

Thank you for taking the time to answer my queries. 

1. For internal roles at McK and BCG (non-IT), what interview prep can I do. Do the interviews involve some cases as well?

2. If an application status on McK dashboard says ‘Closed’, does it mean a rejection at the CV screening stage. I haven't received an email saying so. Just a change in status for the posting. 

Warm regards.

Hi there,

1. For internal roles at McK and BCG (non-IT), what interview prep can I do. Do the interviews involve some cases as well?

First, find out what the interview format will be (ask them directly)

Here's some case reading: https://www.preplounge.com/en/articles/how-to-shift-your-mindset-to-ace-the-case

And some fit reading: https://www.preplounge.com/en/articles/tell-me-about-yourself-interview-question

2. If an application status on McK dashboard says ‘Closed’, does it mean a rejection at the CV screening stage. I haven't received an email saying so. Just a change in status for the posting. 

Most likely yes, but you can always email to check.

Hi there,

It depends on the role. For research roles for example it should include case interviews as well. They should inform on the format in due time.

2. If an application status on McK dashboard says ‘Closed’, does it mean a rejection at the CV screening stage. I haven't received an email saying so. Just a change in status for the posting. 

Most likely yes unfortunately. I would still followup with them if a few weeks have passed already.

For other applications, I would recommend to apply via referral, you can find more on that here:

Best,

Francesco

Hello!

Can you clarify what you mean with “internal positions”? Is it research, VGI, etc.? They are so different!

And yes, unfortunately, closed means not longer under consideration :(

Cheers, 

Clara
