The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at McKinsey & Company (Geneva) in Dec 2010
Interview
D’abord, vous travaillez sur une étude de cas par téléphone avec un employé. Le cas dure environ 30 minutes, puis vous obtenez un retour.
La première étape consiste en deux entretiens en tête à tête et en un test d’intelligence d’une heure. Les deux entretiens durent une heure et se composent de questions sur votre CV, de questions générales et d’un cas.
La deuxième étape consiste en trois entretiens supplémentaires similaires aux deux premiers.
Les frais de transport pour vous rendre à l’entretien sont couverts par l’entreprise. Les personnes conduisant l’entretien sont aimables et enthousiastes. Dans l’ensemble une très bonne expérience.

Question 1
Tell me about a time you had to influence someone without formal authority
It was a one-to-one interview with a consultant. It's a typical case study. The experience was traumatizing. I know my answers weren't great, the consultant was elegant and didn't bother to hide his boredom.
