What makes a great interview? After more than 150 McKinsey interviews, I can assure you: there is no single answer.

Every candidate brings something different. Let’s find out what you bring – what you are particularly good at, which experiences are truly worth talking about, and what is uniquely yours – and make sure all of that comes through when it matters.

Having spent five years at McKinsey, most recently as an Engagement Manager and interviewer, I have a very clear sense of what interviewers are looking for – and of what ultimately makes the difference. I can tell you what catches my attention, where I want to hear more, what leaves me unconvinced and where there is potential that has not quite come through yet.

Whatever we work on – your PEI/FIT, cases or communication – you can expect me to be candid about what works and what doesn’t, precise about where we can improve, and equally attentive to what is already there and worth bringing out.

And perhaps that is what makes a great interview after all: being thoroughly prepared, while still unmistakably yourself – just at your very best.

If you are preparing for MBB interviews, you have probably come across plenty of advice on what you are supposedly expected to do. But how do you know what actually matters – and what doesn’t?

Here is where I can help. Bring me your questions, your PEI stories – whether first drafts or final versions – and your case-solving skills as they are today. We’ll take it from there together. I’ll challenge your thinking, separate useful advice from common misconceptions, and tell you candidly when I think you are focusing on the wrong thing. And I’ll explain the thinking behind my feedback, rather than give you yet another set of rules to follow.

There may be countless rules and plenty of myths about MBB interviews. But ultimately, your interview has to convince a trained interviewer – and that is precisely the perspective I can offer.

Happy with the coaching from Marie - especially that the case session felt like a real case interview.

As an Engagement Manager at McKinsey & Company, I led international teams across industries on complex strategic and organizational transformations.
