Dear A,
This question to the idea, structure, and expected answer is very similar to "Where do you see yourself in 5 years".
Dear A,
With this question employers are likely looking for a few key pieces of information:
Do your expectations align with what the employer can provide?
Employers want to know that your goals fit with the job they’re offering.
Employers may also use this question to gauge whether you are over- or under-qualified for the position.
Hope it helps you,
Best,
André
Hi,
The answer to this question is similar to "where do you see yourself in 5 years?" (https://www.preplounge.com/en/consulting-forum/where-do-you-see-yourself-in-five-years-4830) . Please find below my answer to the question:
This is a tricky question. The safe response is that you say that you see yourself working as a project leader/principal at the office of your application. If you already have a specific interest, you can elaborate on which functional topics and industries you plan to specialize in the future.
Surely, in order to be honest with the interviewers, you can also say that you see their company as a platform to better understand how you want to shape your career. However, I would refrain from saying things such as "I see myself in working in the industry after working at your company for 2-3 years". With this question, they want to test your commitment, thus you need to further elaborate on that.
Best,
Deniz
Hello!
On top of the insights already shared in the post, the "Integrated FIT guide for MBB" has been recently published in PrepLounge´s shop (https://www.preplounge.com/en/shop/tests-2/integrated-fit-guide-for-mbb-34)
It provides an end-to-end preparation for all three MBB interviews, tackling each firms particularities and combining key concepts review and a hands-on methodology. Following the book, the candidate will prepare his/her stories by practicing with over 50 real questions and leveraging special frameworks and worksheets that guide step-by-step, developed by the author and her experience as a Master in Management professor and coach. Finally, as further guidance, the guide encompasses over 20 examples from real candidates.
Feel free to PM me for disccount codes, since we still have some left from the launch!
In 10 years I see myself adding value to clients in a creative manner and making a positive difference in my success and others success.
I will be in Nova Scotia, Canada, with an executive position in the McKinsey branch there. Happy with the ten years I have already had to pursue management consultancy at McKinsey.
I will also be a speaker at TEDx, shedding light on how empathy and emotional intelligence are musts in Business and when working with clients, especially with the changes that have been taking place around the world.
As a reward for myself, I will be settled in a house in the middle of nature with my kids, who will most likely be off to University, at least 2 of them. I will also see the humpback whales.
