Inside the Interview Room: Live McKinsey Case, Ex-McKinsey & HBS MBA

⏱ Timestamps 00:00 Welcome & introductions 14:08 Why smart people still fail the McKinsey case 17:22 The 4 things your interviewer is scoring 19:04 Live case: XYZ Holiday Parks 59:55 Next steps The McKinsey case interview is one of the highest-stakes 45 minutes in consulting recruiting. Most candidates walk in without ever having seen what the interviewer is actually scoring. In this live session, I'll walk you through a real McKinsey-style case from start to finish. Clarifying questions, structure, data analysis, the math, and the recommendation. Along the way I'll show you what McKinsey interviewers are really listening for at each stage. The things that separate a good answer from a great one, and where most candidates lose points without realizing it. I've been on both sides of the table. I worked at McKinsey across Johannesburg, New York and San Francisco, did my MBA at Harvard, and I've coached friends and classmates into McKinsey, BCG, Bain and other top firms. Whether you've got an interview in three weeks or you're just starting to think about consulting, you'll leave with a clear picture of how MBB interviews actually work and a much sharper sense of what your own prep should focus on next. One thing worth checking before you post: YouTube only auto-links timestamps into clickable chapters if the first one starts at 00:00 and there are at least three total, both true here, so this should render as a proper chapter bar under the video. No dashes or brackets needed, just time then a space then the label.
