Hi! Yesterday I had my second round interview with McK (2 interviews, 1-hour-long each), but since I did not manage to finish one of the 3 cases they gave me I do not think I will make it through to the third and final stage. I cannot afford to lose any more time, I need to apply immediately for at least another 5 big consulting firms operating in Italy. Any advice apart from BCG and Bain? Thanks a lot.

I'm sorry you don't think it went too well. I think you might be the same 'Dennis' who was trying really hard? But you don't know until they come back to you.I can't offer you any advice, having knowledge about the UK only, but wonder whether you might help me out:What form did the quant questions take in teh Mc K interview? i have one next week, and don't really know what to expect. The Vault guide doesn't really cover that part, and that's the bit I am most anxious about!Thanks in advance

Well, where can i start from? The first case started like the typical "entering-a-new-market case", but the interviewer after a short time into the interview wanted me to focus into the sales effort and asked me for the number of account managers the firm should have employed to reach a 250 million Euros net income per year, considering there are 10000 potential clients...then a lot of assumptions (the number of contacts per day reachable by car, the number of visits necessary to get the contact to sign the contract if you needed at least 5 succesful meetings and you had to share your chances with competitors and bla bla bla).The second case interview was an "attack-from-a-competitor case", involved low profits and quantitative calculations starting from the bare NI=PV-C equation, and then from there a lot of calculus as the infos were poured in by the interviewer on my request.

Ok, I'm really feeling worried now. But, like I say, it's not over 'til the fat lady sings. If you can share your feedback with us, then please do. Everything helps....Good luck with the jobsearch, I was cheering you on!
