What do you mean by conversion rate? FT offer?

I'm on a big 4 consulting internship and they told us they had offers for all of us. It was just up to us to keep them.

 

Very high... 90%+. The people that don't get it are huge assholes, lied about something, are huge fuck ups, or know they don't want a FT consulting gig.

In this market environment, there are typically enough slots to offer everyone, but non-offers happen more often than you think. You don't have to "eff up" or be a "huge a-hole" to not get an offer. At one particular large MBB office in the recent past, 2 of 3 non-offered MBA interns ended up at other MBBs. If they were "huge fuck ups," that wouldn't have happened. It's also worth noting that the qualifier "in this market environment" is important. When the dot-com bubble burst, MBB all pulled f/t offers and laid off brand new MBA grads.

 

At McKinsey London it was high- 75%+

I was told several times that getting an internship was more competitive than getting a job through the normal recruiting process- partly because there are fewer internship slots- so if you're good enough to get an internship, the assumption is that you're good enough to get a full-time offer

I previously worked for McKinsey in London and have started a blog about consulting and how to get into it at www.theconsultingcoach.com
 

I've heard it's close to 90% if not higher. Basically, if you do a competent job you get an offer, they don't have quotas so much like banks.
