Hi, all --
I'm scheduled to interview for a BTO position soon. I am an experienced hire who was contacted by a McK recruiter. I have been (over)prepping for my case interviews and my PEI. A couple of good friends are recommending I chill out since the recruiter contacted me (as opposed to me being a fresh applicant off the web/street).
My question for McK employees: is the interviewing process different in any way for an experienced hire a recruiter has referred to the firm? I'm guessing the overall structure is still the same - PEI and cases, but I really want to know what is the focus from the firm's perspective - are they looking to validate the work I've said I've performed? Are they looking to see the softer stuff - like leadership qualities, solid client experience, potential to bring in that client, and so on? Or is it just exactly the same as if it were a fresh candidate out of campus recruiting. What I'm really trying to get at is - is any level of skill or analytic ability presumed for experienced hires?
Lastly, if anyone can provide good advice on the interviewing process, I would be grateful. Specifically, stuff that no one ever tells you about until after the fact... stuff that is never written anywhere... :)
Thanks in advance!
