I applied online. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at McKinsey & Company (Athens, Athens, Attica) in Sept 2025
Interview
Starting with a 3-hour Assessment, and then 4 interviews, including both conversations and case problems. The structure is very well defined from the HR, there are no gaps on understanding the process, its very clear what they are looking for during each step of the process

Describe a time when you had a conflict with a stakeholder of a project and you manage to change her/his mind, what was your strategy?
I interviewed at McKinsey & Company (San Francisco, CA)
Interview
Interview was a straightforward case study, and a McKinsey-specific Personal Experience Interview. This was difficult but I was able to prepare, so it was not too challenging after preparation. The team was very kind throughout the process and I was able to request information on the interview style ahead of time.

Tell me about a challenge and how you overcame it?
Passed the online test and then had a round 1 interview. I got a rejection call shortly after. Interviews were a mix of behavioral and technical. Difficulty depends on difficulty of case.
First you get an HR Round, then 2 back to back interviews then 3 interviews. The overall process took around 2-3 weeks, it was not very difficult very fast turnaround
