      Summer Analyst Interview

      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Madrid
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at McKinsey & Company (Madrid)

      Interview

      After the HR team selected my CV I was invited to a business test in their Madrid offices. In 48h I was emailed by a HR girl who invited me to the 1st round interview, also in Madrid (this time they were paying my traveling expenses). I also attended a coaching call before the 1st round interview with a McK consultant, which explained me the interviewing process and discussed a business case with me and a few other candidates.

      Summer Analyst Interview

      Dec 1, 2025
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      New York, NY
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at McKinsey & Company (New York, NY) in Sep 2025

      Interview

      The interview process consisted of multiple rounds, each combining a personal experience interview (PEI) with a case interview. The PEI focused heavily on specific examples of leadership, impact, and problem-solving, with the interviewer asking detailed follow-ups to understand how I approached difficult situations. The case interviews followed the typical McKinsey style — very structured, math-focused, and interviewer-led. I was expected to break down ambiguous problems into clear components, run through quantitative analysis, interpret data from charts, and communicate insights concisely. There was also a short brainstorm or creativity component toward the end of most cases.
