I was hoping someone would be able to provide some details on what the interview process entails after application submission. Has anyone else applied to these, and what was your experience like?

Hi there,

Your best bet is to reach out to HR and ask for more clarity on what to expect.

That said, if there are no case interviews, the emphasis will very much be more on fit. Make sure you're ready with your "Resume Walkthrough", "Why Consulting", and "Why McKinsey/BCG" answers. Also be prepared to talk about anything on your resume, including pointed questions around leadership, teamwork, problem-solving, etc. etc.

Good luck!

It depends on the office, but nothing too special should be expected. Usual screening and case interview.

McKinsey does many insight programmes for various offices so it's hard to say specifically but generally speaking the assessment is done purely by CV screening.
