Hello
I have some questions about first round interview.
1. I got a call from Mckinsey HR saying that I passed the PSG about 2 or 3 weeks ago, but I didn't set a date for the first round interview during that call. I just asked them to give me some time to prepare for the interview.
during last 2 weeks I haven't heard from them so I called yesterday and asked HR about the schedule for first round interview. During the call they told me that if I give them some dates then they will reply me back with the available date.
It feels somewhat weird for me, because most of the other interview that I'd taken till now, the company usually set the interview date for me.
So is it normal for candidates to set a date for interview in consulting culture?
2. I've been told that there will be 10-15 min of PEI interview for every round.
What i'm curious is that whether the interviewers will only be asking me about the one of the 3~4 dimensions(personal impact, etc.) or do the interviewers ask some normal fit questions like “why consulting?”, “why mckinsey?”.
If they will ask me just about one of the 4 dimension during the whole 10~15 min of PEI Interview, then I think I have to back up my stories a lot more.
Thank you
