Online assessment, if successful case interviews and personal experience interview. You will solve a case on a project your interviewer completed. Two interviews in one round. In each interview I started with the personal experience interview. You can prepare this part, make sure to practice with friends or case partners to get more comfortable with this part. The case interview part will cover a case based on a project your interviewer consulted on. I would recommend practicing the Mckinsey example cases on their website.
