The process took 1 week. I interviewed at McKinsey & Company (Helsinki, Southern Finland) in Mar 2009
Interview
The interview consisted of 2 parts. First they made me take a 1.5 hour multiple choice reasoning test, which was followed by two case interviews. Preparing for the case interviews is crucial. There are lot of case interview preparation books out there, if you apply for management consulting firms, mastering the cases are very important.
