About McKinsey in their Own words: 

McKinsey is a global firm, comprising more than 10,000 consultants and nearly 2,000 research and information professionals. Our clients reflect our global nature. Around 40% are in Europe, 35% in the Americas, 15% in Asia Pacific and 10% in the Middle East and Africa. We serve a broad mix of private-, public-, and social-sector organizations.

Our firm is designed to operate as one. We are a single global partnership united by a strong set of values, focused on client impact. Our firm is owned by 1,400 plus partners, spread across Europe, the Americas, Asia Pacific, the Middle East, and Africa.

We have no headquarters in the traditional sense. Our global managing partner, elected by the partners, chooses his or her home office, currently London. Our Shareholders Council or Board also comprises partners elected by their peers. Its 30 members represent more than a dozen nationalities.

We take a consistent approach to recruiting and developing our people, regardless of where they are based. This structure ensures that we can quickly deliver the right team, with the right experience and expertise, to every client, anywhere in the world.

WHAT IS THE WOMEN’S LEADERSHIP CHALLENGE?

McKinsey passionately believes in developing outstanding female leaders. We do so every day, both internally and with our clients. We have published numerous acclaimed pieces that demonstrate the importance of women in leadership positions, including our long-running Women Matter series and the Centered Leadership project.

 

You are invited to take the next step of your leadership journey with us by participating in the APD Women’s Leadership Challenge In this program (November 2016 through May 2017), we will help you:

  • Shape your own leadership style by playing to your strengths
  • Develop your communication style
  • Network with other highly talented women

WHAT DOES THE WLC PROGRAM INCLUDE?
Professional development: Our leadership experts will present professional programming topics via video, and we will host in-person debrief sessions led by McKinsey women following each video session. These debrief sessions, held in our regional offices, will allow you to connect with peers in your geographical area and fine-tune your leadership style together throughout the year.

 

McKinsey Mentor: In addition to the professional programming and debrief sessions, you will be assigned a McKinsey Mentor to support you over the course of the program. Our Mentors will connect with you informally throughout the year and can help you think about a potential application to McKinsey for full-time opportunities in the future.

 

Interview invitation: If selected as a WLC participant, you are guaranteed a first-round interview* should you choose to apply to us after the program.
*Guaranteed interview for a full-time Associate role; 1L JD students may receive a first round Associate Internship interview if applicable

 

WHAT ARE THE ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENTS?

The program is open to APD women (including PhDs, JDs, postdocs, medical students, interns, residents, and fellows) at Harvard, MIT, Northwestern, University of Chicago, and Stanford who will complete their programs in 2018 and 2019.

 

HOW DO I APPLY?

Please submit your application online by September 18, 2016. The application process is simple and takes only a few minutes to complete. All applications will be reviewed and we will notify you of next steps within a few weeks of our application deadline. We will invite finalists to take an online assessment in late September and afterwards, selected participants will be notified by mid October. The program starts in November 2016 and runs through May 2017.

Face of the month - February

A career in research is always challenging more so because the techniques and technologies are changing fast. One has to keep updated about the kind of work going on globally. Securing grants for your research is however the toughest challenge. Mentoring students and solving their problems also becomes quite challenging at times. - Dr. Charu Lata

Raising Talents

The moment he granted me a seat, the news spread like anything. The principal called Mr. Sahu and almost every person laughed at me. I was a very simple girl from middle-class family. Many unwanted suggestions poured in. But I think I was destined to be here. Days went by. At the end of every year, a mining student has to go for training in mines.
