Question 1
Tell me a time when you disagreed with someone at work.
I applied through university. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at McKinsey & Company (Dallas, TX) in Jan 2025
Interview
Terrible. They are so cocky and arrogant that it is hard to even have a conversation with them. Feedback I got was that the person didn't like my story... all is luck of the draw. You may get some terrible like i got or might get someone really easy to talk.
