Does McKinsey use a video or HireVue screen for analyst roles?
Many McKinsey analyst and graduate programmes start with a recorded video (often HireVue) screen of 3–5 behavioural and motivation questions before any live interview. Practising on camera with a timer is the single best preparation.
How important is commercial awareness for McKinsey?
For front-office and analyst roles it is central. Follow current macro themes, know a recent deal or initiative relevant to McKinsey, and be ready to give a clear, reasoned view.
What does McKinsey look for in analyst answers?
Structured STAR answers with quantified results and genuine, specific motivation for the firm and division. Generic answers about "prestige" or "great culture" are scored low.
