Hello peers,

I just finished my Mckinsey final round interview. The interviewer didn't mention anything about coming back with an answer. When could I expect them to come back?

Hello,

Congratulations on making the final round! It depends on the office - some will let you know on the same day, whereas others can take up to a few weeks. Either way, you should hear back soon. Best of luck!

Hi there, 

Congrats!

Hope you're a bit relieved now. 

Realistically, they can answer on the day or even take as long as 2-3 weeks. 

Sit tight and if you haven't done so already, apply to more firms. 

It's a tough wait - I know, I also had to wait for 10 days to hear back.

Keeping my fingers crossed for you!

And if you're looking into some reading to do before you start your consulting journey, you can use the following resources:

Best,
Cristian

Hi there,

Well done on making it to the final round! Please remember that this is already a great accomplishment.

You maye here back within the same day or it could take several weeks (up to a couple of months).

Sit tight and do not wait around hoping. Rather, network with and apply to other firms just in case.

Fingers crossed!

Hi! Congratulations on making it to the last round, and I hope that your interview went well. If I were you, I would write a friendly email to the McKinsey recruiting team (the HR contact you have been in touch with to set up the interview) and ask when you can expect to hear back from them. You can even mention that there is no rush, but you would like to set your expectations. Hope this helps, and my fingers are crossed for you!

Hi there,

Q: When could I expect them to come back? 

Most candidates hear back within a week after a final interview. If you don't hear back by then, I would recommend reaching out to HR to ask for feedback.

Good luck!

For approximately what starting date? (Just curious because I might be interested in applying in the future and I am looking to learn more about application timelines) Thanks!
