I applied online. I interviewed at McKinsey & Company (Washington, DC)
Interview
It was a 30min call where the recruiter explained more about the role and sector followed by questions to learn about you and your fit at the company. This was an experience hire interview with no case and instead questions about experience and personality.

Two rounds (first round 2 associate interviews, second 3 partner interviews), 30 minutes of a personal story and 30 minutes of cases. The second round was much less rigid with some partners being much more structured and others being more loose.
