  • Why McKinsey
  • London office
  • Case structure
  • Problem-solving test

How to give this application a real chance

  • Why McKinsey rather than BCG or Bain, in one concrete sentence — a study type or a way they staff, not “top firm”.
  • Practise cases out loud. The digital problem-solving test is a first cut; a PEI-style story (personal impact, leadership, or a time you owned an outcome) sits alongside the cases.
  • Apply on the Business Analyst posting and choose London. The UK careers hub is not the form.
