McKinsey reapply timing
Overview of answers
Hi Anonymous,
the standard ban at McKinsey is 2 years; according to your performance, as for BCG, they may reduce the period to 1 year or 6 months. If that’s the case, the interviewer/HR will normally let you know the reduced period after the interviewer; if not specified otherwise, you can assume it is the standard period.
Hope this helps,
Francesco
2 ways to go at it:
1. Follow interviewer's guidance if any
2. Else, reapply when you have something else to offer (new degree, additional work experience / responsibilities)
Often the above will be 1 to 2 years
Hi Anonymous,
this depends on the market you're considering. But generally MBB firms have similar timings in a given market. As usual - your best strategy is to reach out to recruiting at your taget McKinsey office and ask.
Cheers, Sidi
Hi there,
Usually the ban period lasts 12-24 months. But you can contact HR and discuss your situation.
All the best,

Dear A,
Normally, it's 12-18 month. But in every case, I would recommend you to contact HR first.
Best,
André
Hi,
It's 1-2 years depending on your situation. You can shortcut by:
- Getting a degree (Masters / MBA)
- Applying full-time vs the internship
- Winning a local case competition (only relevant for some countries)
