When do you think the actual interviews will be? I know last year they weren't until after people's internships ended around August 8th.

 

If invites come out this week, does that mean interview will be week of August 4th?

There is a possibility they could be later this week , I have seen one comment on Reddit re one FT interview offer from a West Coast office with a date of 31 July. BCG and Bain seem to recruit centrally in USA whereas I believe MCK recruit on a decentralised basis with each office determining their staffing needs and arranging interviews. As far as I can see no one else has received any FT interview offers but I suspect they are imminent. Bain FT R1 are out , BCG will be start Aug with interviews 6&7 Aug. Makes sense for all three to have more or less aligned processes 

 

got my interview for bay area. it says "the Bay Area (San Francisco and Silicon Valley) offices" in the message, does that mean I could be placed in silicon valley?
