McKinsey Doesn't Suck (Columbia Still Does)

I really like this company. It's rare when a place of this size can make you feel so good about them...I mean it's this kind of attitude that made me feel not bad at all about not getting a summer offer!

Dear CHUNK,


I hope this message finds you doing well. By way of introduction, I am the new law recruiter for Columbia Law School. We have enjoyed getting to know you and while we were not able to extend you a summer associate offer, we continue to feel strongly that you may be a good fit with McKinsey. With this in mind, we would like to stay in touch with you this summer and extend an early invitation to interview with us again this fall.

Additionally, if you will be working in or near a North American city in which McKinsey has an office, we would like to provide you with an opportunity to meet more McKinsey folks by way of special events we will be hosting this summer. To ensure that we invite you to the event most convenient for you, we'd like to collect some information -- could you send a quick email back with answers to the following questions:

  • What company will you spending your summer with?
  • What will your role will be (and department, if applicable)?
  • Which city/country you will be located?
  • Would you be interested in attending a McKinsey & Company event in your summer city?

We hope you remain interested in a full-time opportunity with McKinsey & Company. If there is anything I, or anyone on the APD Law recruiting team, can do for you over the course of the next several months, please do not hesitate to contact me at 212-415-5140. I look forward to hearing a response from you soon!

Warmest regards,

Meegan McDermott
