McKinsey Adds AI Interview For Applicants
McKinsey is incorporating an AI 'collaboration' interview using its internal tool Lilli into select final-round graduate recruitment rounds in the US, CaseBasix and the Financial Times report. Candidates are asked to prompt Lilli, review outputs, and apply judgment on practical consulting tasks, with emphasis on collaboration and structured reasoning rather than technical prompting expertise. The change signals growing expectation of AI competence for consulting hires and may reshape candidate preparation.
