I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at McKinsey & Company (Ciudad Radial) in Sep 2025
Interview
The interview process was structured and professional, consisting of multiple stages. It began with an initial screening interview, followed by case interviews and a fit (behavioral) interview. The process focused on assessing both problem-solving skills and personal fit with the firm’s values. Interviewers were structured, supportive, and clearly communicated expectations throughout each stage.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
One key question I was asked was: “Tell me about a time you led a challenging project or solved a complex problem.”
Straightforward, well structured & well explained. Long duration, with 5 30-ish minute interviews total spread out over the course of a couple of weeks. Great support, information on requirements/evaluations readily available.
Too long - too many rounds. Had to play a game first, then multiple rounds. No follow ups after I was rejected - I got ghosted.
Did not enjoy it - obviously this was a long while back and I was too young to notice but not a good behaviour. Truly no respect.
The process made me feel very unprepared but I was able to get through with all of my studying. I would recommend anyone about to interview with them look at Harvard Business cases as reference
