Congrats to those who have received offers :smile:

. I'd love to get on this, i'm currently doing a years placement with GlaxoSmithKline in IT but wanted to learn a bit about consulting during the summer before I go back to university.

This is what mine said

Your details have been sent to McKinsey’s recruitment team as an SEO Candidate – this means that your application will be prioritised and your chances of being successfully chosen for the Discover Programme are increased.

What did yours say?

same as yours. lol was generic i guess. oh well.

What do you guys mean when you say you've applied via SEO?
Also if people have got offers now does those that haven't heard probably haven't got one? :frown:

Me too! Congrats. :smile:

I just realized I'll have to cancel a lot of reservations I had already made for the holidays. Sigh. Do you get fast-tracked for internships, etc.?

Well done guys!

When did you apply?

EDIT: Not looking good for the rest of us who didn't get an email guys... seems that last year they sent out all the acceptances on the same day and the rejections the few day afterwards. Fingers crossed I'm wrong though..

No, it's purely non-evaluative. The venue looks awesome though!

Hi Everyone

I received a rejection a few days ago and I am curious, as to why I was rejected. For those of you that have been applied or been accepted, can you please let me know any tips you would recommend? If you could private message me, what your background is (uni, course, what year of study etc) and if you have secured any internships or have any relevant work experience, that will be SO HELPFUL!

If you could also say if you do any extracurricular activities, that will be helpful too.

Thanks for your time.

Regards

I was also unsuccessful. However, I was invited to join McKinsey's Keep In Touch Programme. Was everyone else? Am curious to know if this is something they invite all unsuccessful candidates to join.
