They throw them away so that they can’t be shared. This happens with everyone’s papers.
Haha what did you think they would do - keep them to study your novel insights and make recommendations?
Maybe he’s upset that they didn’t recycle?

I heard interviewers retain the papers to evaluate on your note taking skills. The other interviewer did keep the papers with him/her after the interview. But this one just throw away immediately in front of me.
Some firms read notes—McKinsey doesn’t. If your note taking skills were good/horrible, they’d notice during the case.
