麦肯锡面试经历

麦肯锡面试经历（HKOFFICE）.面试三点半开始。长江中心。我去过无数次的地方。等了很久。貌似behindschedule了。:e022:大约四点我进去。等了大概5分钟。第一位面试官出现了。乍一看。不好。中国人。呵呵。大家肯定觉得奇怪，中国人还不好。呵呵。因为在香港的无非是香港人或是新加坡人。说实话。两者面试官的英文我都听不太懂。。据六六同学不成文的面试经历总结。面试官外国人好过本土人。男人好过女人。sigh..进来给我一名片。我一看。恩。果然是新加坡分公司的。说一下。Mckinsey还有很多大公司都采用跨地域面试。就是一般面试的都不是本地的manager.比如我在pwc时就是伦敦office的人过来面。坐下来先聊简历。当然都是英文。都是些很general的question.无非是对我的经历感兴趣的。因为我之前在清华，后来在香港，中途又去美国。我就一一作答。然后被问到迄今为止最proud的一件事情。我最讨厌被问到这个问题，因为老实说我就没啥proud的。。然后嗯了一下。。不知道哪根神经搭错了，忽然说age.后来发现。哎。果然不能说。但说都说了，我只好解释说，因为我年龄小。16岁进大学。20岁毕业但是却已经走过了很多地方，一个人处理过很多问题。blahblah...然后貌似那人挺吃惊的。说阿。你这么小阿。我心里恨恨地想。难道看不出来么。哼哼。然后就开始做case.第一个case是一个新加坡的sugarrefinarycompany.简单介绍了一下公司的性质，然后说他们现在每年lose200万。他们的competitor多半不是localcompany.而是一些国外的companyimportwhitesugarfromsay,thailandthenselltheminsingapore.现在有个公司approach你，说让你把公司move到印尼。因为cost小，可以赢利。问你。move或者不move.第二个case是一个做电子行业的multinationalcompany.在中国有个零件制造商approach他们，说希望被他们收购。因为这家公司现在亏空。问你。要不要收购？第三个case是说在剑桥旁边一个三明治店。没有座位的。lunchtime的时候卖三明治。请估算它的年收入。当你算出年收入之后。继续问。现在来了一小摊贩。就是非法的。流动人口那种。什么都没有。就一雨伞。雨伞下面一摊，卖三明治。就在这小店的前面。之前问出来的info有小店三明治5元一个。这流动摊贩卖3.5一个。但是却抢走了小店1/2的customer.问怎么办。一点总结。前面两个case我做得不好。feedback是我太拘谨了。呵呵。说一点都不怀疑我的智商。但是我没有show给它们智慧的火花。我自己感觉最后一个做得不错。interviewer也说做得不错。感觉上就是你就算很困惑，也请你在心里困惑。千万别跟我前两个case一样。一困惑就皱眉头。。然后还有很多习惯性动作，咬笔头啥啥的。多部professional阿。呵呵。，一定要装的很冷静。然后微笑。这样。祝大家好运！师妹已经过了mckinsey3rdround即将面对partner祝她好运、afterthefirstroundinterviewofmckinseytodayi'vejustexperiencedthefirstroundinterviewofmckinseyinkerrycenter.theinterviewwasmucheasierthanwhatiwasthinkingaboutbefore.actually,itonlytookmenomorethan15minutestofinishit!tooshortforaformalinterviewthere.andthefeelingtherewasjustlikeiwalkin,gottoknoweachother,saidhelloandthengoodbye.ididn'tshowmyselftotallyenoughbeforetheinterviewee!terribletorecallthisexperiencetosomedegree.theresultofthisroundwillbegivennextweek,ificouldreceivethephoneinterviewasthesecondround.hopememyselfagoodluck!andthemostvaluablethingisthatwheni'mthere,backtothebuildingwhereispenttwomothsasanintern,iranintosomanyfamiliarfaces,actuallyallaremycolleagestotheextent.happyandallseemedtobeastonishedtoseemethere,juststandingstillandcouldnottalk(ijustfigureoutthispoint.)sohappytoseethemagain,andmaybetodayisjustadreamrecallfromlastyear.reallyanexcitingdaytoday!3月14日maybefailedthistime/ormaybeididagoodjobtoonervoustodothatkindofinterviewsthere.heseemedtoputmeundersuchgreatpressurethatmakesmetoonervoustofigureoutagoodlogicanswer.1)couldwejustbeginourinterviewwithyoureducationbackgroundandworkexperiences?ijustmentionedthatthekeypointsofmymajorsandthenameandtitileofmyjob.2)andthen,hewanttoknowsomeotherworkexperiencestherebesidestheworkexperienceinjpmorgan.ijustsaidbenq,itfirmfocusedonhardwaremanufacturing.3)andthen,ibegantoshowhimmycharacteristicsthere,butunfortunatelyhecaughtthathowcouldibalancethehardworkthere.ididn'tthoughtofthatbefore,ijustmentionedthepointthatifyoubelieveyoucan,yousurecan.(don'trememberwhetheri'vegotitclearornot)4)heaskedhowideveloptheinterestinfinanceitoldhimthatitwasbecausefromchongqingtobeijing,iopenedupmyeyes.andificoulddoexcellentinfinance,icouldsuccessfullydoeverything.5)hewanttoknowwhyiinterestedinibexceptnplitoldhimthatnplismorefocuedonassets,aswellaslegalopinionsthati'mnotsointerestedin.andibismorefocusedoncapital,whichi'minterestedin.andib'stransactionsismoresignificant.andmoreinternational.6)someofmyinterestsibelievethisisthebestanswerididinthisinterview.imentionedallthepointsofmybestoutstandingexpertise,andalsomentionedhowthefamilywouldliketodescribemeandgavemesomeadvices,iwilltaketheiradvicesinmind,trytodobetter.sofinallyhegavemeopportunitiestoasksomequestionsthere.andfirstofall,iwanthimtosharesomeexperienceswithme.hetoldmethatthisisthe5thyearinibandheisanassociatenow.hehasworkedinnewyorkandbackbaseinhongkongnow.justsomeregularexperiencesnotwithexciting.andsecond,iaskedabouttheinformationoflocalcareerpath.hedidn'tknowandisaidthankyouallthesame.atlast,iaskedaboutthesecondroundinterview.willbesooninformedificouldgetintothesecondround.sofinallyidon'tknowwhetherididanexcellentjobornot.causei'mtoonervoustoanswersomeofthequestionsthere,andsometimesstuckedandcouldnotgoon.orontheotherpoint,ididshowthehighlightpointsout,andhehadrecordedthemall.maybe,fortakinganoptimisticviewofthat.wishmeagoodlucktoentrythesecondround!3月15日2ndroundmckinseythisround,beforeenteringthemeetingroom,duringtheinterview,ididn'tfeelnervousatall.andforsure,thismademekindofnervousthati'mnotinsuchhighmoodtoshowmyselfactively.that'smydealyfaultonlycouldbeovercomedbyhighmood.ok,theprocessofthisroundisasfollowing:1)regularly,fromselfintroductionibelievethistimeididshowthebestselfintroductoinofallthetimesbefore.fromeducationbackground,toworkexperiences,tocharacteristics,tointerests.allthepartsjustwentonthewayiprepared,hadn'tbeeninterruptedtheonlytime.2)aswhati'vementionedtoomuchfocusedoninterests,sheaskedmeabouthowwouldispendthesparetime?iwasjustalittleconfused,i'vejustmentionedsomuchinterestsbeforethisquestion,howcouldsheaskthesamekindofquestionagain?!butijustledherintothewaythatiwouldliketoreadalotaboutfinan
