I applied online. The process took 6 months. I interviewed at McKinsey & Company (Doha) in Apr 2026
Interview
In the 20-minute personal experience interview, I was able to engage comfortably and reflect on my background, but in the 40-minute case I struggled to structure my approach and interpret the exhibit clearly. I didn’t manage to finish the case within the time limit, particularly when it came to setting up the math and moving through the analysis logically. However, both interviewers were supportive throughout and tried to guide me when I got stuck, which helped me stay engaged and keep progressing even if I wasn’t fully on track.

Whole timeline: recruiter interview -> 1 month -> 1st round
The interview process was tricky - several technical and consulting questions were asked. Good preparation is needed to clear it on the basis of data analysis, problem solving and communication.
