Core

Fit & PEI

The behavioural round decides more offers than candidates expect.

The McKinsey PEI

One story, twenty minutes of drilling, three named dimensions.

The PEI dimensions and what they test

McKinsey picks one dimension and goes twenty minutes deep on a single story. Depth beats breadth.

STAR-L: structure without sounding rehearsed

The classic structure plus the ending most candidates omit.

Why consulting, why us

The two questions everyone is asked and almost everyone answers generically.

Answering 'why consulting' and 'why this firm'

Specificity is the whole game. Generic enthusiasm is indistinguishable from every other candidate.
