Question 1
Tell me one time you had to work with a diverse team
The process took 3 months. I interviewed at McKinsey & Company (Jakarta)
Interview
i went through 4 rounds of interviews, 1st and 2nd with EM/AP level interviewers, 3rd with AP/Partner levels, and the final round Partner interview. The structure to all the interviews were the same: PEI -> Case -> QnA. Case interviews can be very unexpected and niche, heavy on structuring and would say slightly less difficult on the maths. Received my offer 2 weeks after my final round interview, for a placement in the upcoming year.
