Hi there,
I would say that this is a reasonable question to expect in an interview, as part of the "ice breakers" (not the PEI). It is similar to "where you see yourself in 5 years" or "why do you want to work in consulting" type of question. The key to answering this type of questions is to:
As with any ice breaker question, you can only lose points, so keep the answer concise, to the point, and focus on what you bring to the table, rather than what you expect to gain from your position with McKinsey.
Good luck!
Ben.

Hi,
It's not a standard question that McKinsey is asking, but rather something an interviewer personally decided to ask. You should probably check what consultants are doing on a day to day basis. There are tons of articles and videos. It's not worth pursuing that job if you don't have a clear picture
