“... I believe it was the single biggest reason why I ended up with an offer...”
Was it a personal email or from their Keep in Touch program? The latter is pretty common. To your last point, as long as you didn't, say, renege an offer, they've no reason to be vindictive. You're either a potential hire or a potential client. Their aren't many other types of people for a client service firm.
Didn't renege on an offer but I was close to offer stage. Would have thought pulling out right before offer stage would = a renege.
Personal email to ask about interest and schedule a phone call.
Typical recruiting outreach program. All the MBBs have special recruiting process for their offer/interview declines, talk to them if you are interested, otherwise no harm no foul. From their perspective, it is much easier than trying to find someone new to hire, and much lower cost (billable hour wise).
Makes tons of sense, I'll only go through the process if they put me to the round I left at last year! You know pass the phone case and the in office cases and Leadership crap.
Leadership crap? Personal experience interviews (PEI) happens in every interview round.
McKinsey never does this. You are so intelligent and well spoken that the top consulting firm is begging you to take an offer.
I wish I was as smart as you.
(Is this what you were looking for? Yes).
You glossed over my simple ? and you had a convo with yourself.
Inferiority is very unbecoming...
My first sentence answers your only question.
at least get an actual offer before you get cocky
