How to apply for McKinsey?

In the eyes of ordinary people, consultation means giving advice. However, STRATEGYCONSULUTING industry should actually be divided into three levels: the first level is called strategizing, which mainly serves high-level people such as CEO; The second level is called OPERATIONALCONSULTING, which mainly helps middle managers. The other is called SPECIALIZEDCONSULTING, which provides different consulting services according to different needs. Mckinsey mainly provides strategic consulting. In this field, its main competitors include Boston Consulting Group, ATKearney and BoozAllen. In McKinsey's view, a good manager is regardless of industry and specific functions. A good manager can manage any enterprise well, just like an axiom, which is universally applicable. So McKinsey is to help the CEO analyze the situation, quantify various factors, and help him in the face of major uncertainties. Smart, diligent and ambitious. First of all, you have to be smart, really smart. It is embodied in your understanding and learning ability. For example, most of the people you deal with are CEOs, who are their experts and have 20 years of industry experience. And you are completely new to their industry. Second, you should be able to bear hardships. This industry is at the expense of youth. Average daily work 15- 16 hours, frequent business trips. Marriage and friends can only be wronged. Third, you should be ambitious and self-motivated. McKinsey is a place with perfect talents. How dare you slack off a little? Competitive pressure and superman's workload are great tests. If you want to get promoted in such an environment, two things are very important. First, as a subordinate, your purpose is to keep the boss idle. You must convince your boss that it is reliable to leave things to you. Second, you have to deal with customers. If, as a consultant, the CEO you serve habitually asks you for advice on every major decision, then you have reached the peak. At present, there are about 30 consultants in China of McKinsey & Company, of whom 65,438+00% are doctors, 60% are MBA, 65,438+00% are doctors plus MBA, and the remaining 20% are other masters and ordinary undergraduate students. And to develop, it must be an MBA. At present, the recruitment scope of McKinsey undergraduates in China is only concentrated in Fudan, Jiaotong University, Tsinghua and Peking University, and the majors involved are mainly foreign languages, computers and management. In the face of such an excellent enterprise as McKinsey, I am too modest and lack of self-confidence, repeatedly saying: I am very eager to serve your company. Or act overconfident, as if he had come to collect debts rather than apply for a job. In the interview, you should show your love for this job and your ambition. McKinsey is a job, a good job, that's all.
