Does McKinsey use case interviews for consultants?
Yes — McKinsey's process pairs fit/behavioural interviews with live case interviews that test how you structure ambiguous problems, do quick mental maths, and synthesise a recommendation. Some rounds also include a written or digital case.
How many fit stories should I prepare for McKinsey?
Prepare 4–6 strong stories covering leadership, impact, persuasion, and overcoming adversity, each with a clear personal contribution. Interviewers will probe for specifics, so vague "we" answers score poorly.
What separates strong McKinsey candidates?
Structured thinking, quantified impact, and genuine "why this firm" reasoning. Delivering fit answers crisply and confidently — not just having good content — is often the differentiator.
