Hello!
Excel skills are not tested in the selection process (in Amazon, for example, they are).
However, it is highly recommendable to be proficent in Excel -not to die during the engagements-.
Hope it helps! Cheers,
Clara
Furthermore, the intern process is exactly the same as a normal Business Analyst one. Identical — Clara on Dec 26, 2019
Can you better specify to which test you refer?
Hi,
They are not testing your excel skills, but you will lose your job very fast at McKinsey if you start working without them

Hi Avetis,
the interview process for an internship in McK is the same of a standard hiring. You should expect:
1. A preliminary test: in some offices the standard PST test is being substituted by a new “gaming” test. I’ll suggest you to inform which of the two is in places in the office you are applying. You can find a lot of resources online to practice PST, however, there are no possibility to practice the new “gaming” test
Two rounds of interviews (1 or 2 manager/junior partner in the first round and usually 3 partners or senior partners for the second round). All the interviews will have a first part on fit questions and a second part on case resolution + few minutes at the end for candidate questions.
To prepare the interviews I will suggest the following path:
- Reading come resources (preplounge, Cosentino book, Victor Cheng videos)
- Practice few cases with a peer
- Practice with an expert coach to receive proper feedback and improve you probability of success.
Fell free to contact ne for further information,
Best
