Hi! I submitted my resume with a friend for a role at Mckinsey (Research Analyst) back in December '20/Jan'21 for the Indian office. They said that they recently left the firm but they will forward my resume to the Team Manager/Team Lead. I was expected not to have high hopes though, since 1. they just finished a massive hiring for the team/role 2. I have a tech/FAANG background and not a market/econ background as the team is looking for market analysis.
Today I got a mail from the Mckinsey Referral system. Turns out the HR of their team referred me. So, my question is:
1. Should I expect a call for the subsequent rounds?
2. How is a RA interview different from a BA interview? Do I expect anything other than guesstimates, case studies etc?
TIA!

Hi! Thanks for taking out your time to answer this question. I hope I get the call quick. :) And I am not looking for the consultant track since I am from a non-target school where I did my UG so this is pretty much my shot to get into the consulting side. If I do like the role, I might plan for my MBA later and give it a go! Thanks for your help. Would you have any idea what kind of questions they normally ask for the role then? Glassdoor only suggests PEI and guesstimates.
