Dear experts,
after receiving an offer from McKinsey in a particular country, is it possible to ask HR for a transfer to an office in a different country before actually starting the job in the first country? Could you please share your thoughts on that?
Regards

Hi,

I know a few people who have done this, however they went through another round of interviews. You can get in touch with HR, and explain the reasons for the change.

Best,

Deniz

Hi! If you want to join in another country, you would most probably need to interview again. Depending on the supply/demand situation of your target office, you might just have to go through a "light" process (e.g., just one partner interview) or the entire process with several rounds etc.

Cheers, Sidi

Hi,

You can, but it's not viewed positively and can be a bit risky. They may not need people in the other office, for example. That being said, I know people who have done it - the level of additional interviewing varied.

To echo others' statements, you do need to have a solid justification for the ask.

Hi,

There are lot's of factors influencing that:

  • Location (same region / different)
  • Work permit in that country
  • Language
  • Local demand for resources in each country

You can only check it with HR.

Dear A,

You may try, but you have to remember that different offices may have different availability of spots. Also that might mean that you have to make th interview process again. You may pass it and may not.

So I would rather assess you own risk on that.

Best,

André
