Go to a non-target in West Coast. Applied to mckinsey last week and applying to bain and bcg this weekend as well as some smaller firms. Does anyone have info on when mckinsey should follow up with next steps for the BA internship? Assuming it will take at least a week but wondering if anyone knows more
To my knowledge, all Business Analyst Interns take an online assessment called Imbellus, which replaced the old PST. However, I know of at least one person from my school who did not get the invite to take the Imbellus test. I got the Imbellus invite a day or two after the app deadline for my school, and I assume we will receive 1st round decisions this week.
I go to a target and I didn't get an Imbellus, haven't heard anything at all though. Not sure what that means, I don't think anyone else I know got Imbellus either but I haven't discussed much with people

Do you know when we'll start hearing back? — just got first round at BB
How good do you think your chances are? — I have never studied at all for this. Applied out of boredom because all my friends did. Wtf now lol
Do they select you for interviews over Handshake only or do you get an email from the firm themselves about scheduling interviews?
Firms themselves
Just heard back with first round from BCG
Second tier target
No previous internships, I've only done academic research
Chances probably pretty low due to lack of experience but well see
Just got dinged in the first round for at McKinsey
Maybe I just have a biased sample but it seems like McKinsey is the only one still hiring in full force for interns and full-timers.
