Career Services Corner
December Graduates: How is the job search going? Please let me know if I can help! (jpatte4 at clemson.edu<mailto:jpatte4 at clemson.edu>)
These five areas of talent and character that are at the heart of what McKinsey and Co. seek in job candidates:
1. Personal impact
People skills more than matter, they are essential. Without them, great ideas languish, lacking internal support and momentum. Our teams build relationships with clients quickly and become trusted advisers by inspiring broad support inside the client organization. When conflicting points of view arise-and they always do-using strong communication skills and effectively working with colleagues and clients inside the team room helps to overcome temporary obstacles.
1. Entrepreneurial drive
We want McKinsey to always remain a place where entrepreneurs-who are innovative by nature, and always searching for ways to create new approaches, products services, and technologies-can find a home and feel at home. It's a value that distinguishes us.
So we look for people with the potential to become entrepreneurs within McKinsey-building new service lines, pioneering new geographies, innovating aspects of our firm.
Many of our internal entrepreneurs eventually apply their experience and the learning they gain to new ventures of their own.
1. Problem-solving skills
These skills are absolutely critical. McKinsey is brought in to help our clients solve their toughest and most urgent challenges. Are you someone who can think both conceptually and practically? Do people say that you think differently about things? Do you like to create a challenging problem? Then we should talk.
1. An orientation around achievement
To help our clients achieve great things we look for people with a track record of achieving great things themselves. We value the drive and fortitude to get things done and know it translates into client impact and the continual innovation of our institution.
1. Leadership abilities
Leadership-the ability to take people forward and act as a catalyst for productive teamwork-is essential and common to those who succeed here. But we recognize that different people lead in different ways; we appreciate the diversity of gifts that make some people capable of inspiring others to rally behind them. That's how we help create positive change within client organizations-and our own. Some say we are a leadership factory based on the CEOs, entrepreneurs, politicians, and social-change agents we develop.
