PhDs Inside - Management Consulting with McKinsey & Co.

Have you thought about using the skills from your PhD outside of academia in a consulting role? Your advanced degree means that you likely already have many of the skills you need to succeed at McKinsey and in Management Consulting in general, such and problem-solving and intellectual curiosity.

In this virtual session, you will learn which kind of opportunities McKinsey & Company can offer PhD graduates and the types of work we do. You will gain insight on life in McKinsey and how a ‘post-PhD’ career with us could look like from consultants on the journey themselves.
