      Junior Business Presentation Designer Interview

      Feb 10, 2016
      Anonymous employee
      Heredia
      Accepted offer
      Neutral experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at McKinsey & Company (Heredia)

      Interview

      It was exhausting. First Apply online and get an appointment for and english exam and graphics (sort of a logic) test, where i had to associate figures with concepts. Then wait for a call to tell me if i passed. Then a phone interview to measure spoken english level (about an hour long) just talking about my background. Then I got an appointment to go to a Recruiting Day, where first they made us (a group of 8) perform a presentation using basic power point. Then, they divided the group and made us perform an advertising piece with sharpies and color pencils to observe our work-in-group skills and communication skills. All the talking had to be in english. And we made a presentation of our advertising piece to a panel of judges. This was part one of recruiting day. Then lunch provided by the company. The second part of the recruiting day, was a couple of interviews that only people who had passed the fisrt part would have. I passed and the first one was intense. I had 2 logic exercises where I had to find the figure what the consultant wanted in a hand written instruction. It gave me a migraine. The second interview was to talk about my CV and my background as a designer and other jobs, and the typical interview. Salary expectation or overall compensation topic was NEVER mentioned. A week after that i recieved a phone call telling me they would like to extend me the offer and I went and signed. That is when they told me I was going to get 1000 pay per month as a junior. I started some weeks after.

      Junior Business Presentation Designer Interview

      Jun 3, 2022
      Anonymous employee
      San Jose, San Jose
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at McKinsey & Company (San Jose, San Jose) in May 2022

      Interview

      The overall experience was nice, but the process was very long, it took me almost 3 months to get to the final offer. But in general it was a very smooth process and they make the information very clear. Once you apply they send you a link to a multitasking skills test, an English proficiency test and a kind of "personality" test. If you pass, they ask you to schedule a phone interview (30 min), and if you do well, they invite you later to a portfolio review interview and a technical test. During the portfolio review (20 min) you can show some of your work briefly and they may ask you how you've worked with clients, with a brief, etc. The technical test is an exercise of completing PowerPoint slides. The person in charge of the process will give you access to the company's computer and you work with the McKinsey PowerPoint program. You are asked to complete some slides that are "incomplete" for a fictitious consultant of the firm, you will need to format them correctly according to the company's brand guidelines (texts in X color, font weight, etc), assign icons to texts and correct the values of a table. You will also be asked to write an email to the consultant who "assigned you the job" mentioning details that you thought were important to highlight. At the end of the technical module session, you will have a short interview about what you think you did well and what were the most challenging sections, as well as what you could have done better. If you pass this stage, during the following days they will call you to schedule the last 2 final interviews (50 min each). In my case they were done on the same day, one after the other with a 15 minute break between calls.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Phone interview: Why are you interested in this position? Why do you want to work here? What do you understand about the role? Tell about a situation where you had a conflict at work and how you handled it. What is your biggest professional achievement? Explain how the jobs you list on your CV relate to the position you are applying for. Final Interviews: Most of the questions were situational. They ask you to talk about experiences where you have worked with a diverse team, how you have worked with people who have different opinions, how you have expressed what you thought when you disagreed with your team or your boss, how you have handled stressful situations, how you motivate yourself during those types of situations, if you have learned any skills on your own that you are proud of, how you handle feedback, and so on.

      Junior Business Presentation Designer Interview

      Anonymous employee
      Chennai
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through college or university. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at McKinsey & Company (Chennai) in May 2021

      Interview

      The process took 3 months to complete and I learned a lot from this interview. I applied through campus recruitment. Round 1: Test and chat assessment- this included tests based on our English knowledge and multi-tasking skills. Selected candidates attended the next round- A telephonic interview- they asked a lot of situational and behavioral questions based on previous experiences. The next round took place after a month- A Portfolio interview- Our portfolio was reviewed by an employee and we were asked questions based on that. The next step was the role simulation round where we were asked to create PowerPoint presentations. This task was interesting, it also included email writing skills. The next three rounds were based on situational questions for various competencies. Each round took place for about 45 minutes and it was easy. It was more like a conversation so candidates need not fear. Good communication and learning capacity are the most important factors they are looking for.
