If I have accepted an offer at a NA McKinsey office but know that my fiance is likely to move abroad after a year to another country, can I request a transfer after a year or so based on personal (family) reasons?
How hard is it to secure this? What will I need to do/achieve to ensure I can do this? Can I request a transfer after a year or so of working in a NA office? Will I have access to international exposure opportunities?

Thanks Clara! How do you build a relationship with the target office? In other words how do you get on projects with them? For ex: I am in a NA office and i want to do a project with an Australian office.
If you don´t have any built relationship that you can already leverage, once you are hired you can get yourself staffed in projects with partners from that geography. This is what people normally do, and it works very well -but needs big time investments, months-. Cheers!
Hi Clara, may you elaborate why it is impossible to transfer to Singapore? As an overseas Singaporean, I was hoping to stay in London for a couple of years after my studies before transferring back home to sg. Thank you
