McKinsey / ex-Interviewer at McKinsey / I will coach you to rock those interviews

That’s again your chance to let your personality shine. Try to choose something fun, which highlights what kind of person you are and explain why.

I would, of course, choose something which is acceptable in a work-place, but do not hold yourself back too much.

By the end of the day, consultants are looking for the future colleagues with whom they will be locked up for lots of hours in a day, so letting your fun side out when this kind of question is asked, is not a bad idea.

Best,
Daniel

OMG! of Materia, bc its an energetic song about the search of fulfillment, the choice of the right way to achieve it out of the incredibly diverse spectrum, and the optimism and conviction that the answer appears by itself if one pays attention to the current moment.
