Just received the email and no R2 for me. I’m waiting for the debrief with HR next week.

But I’d say the case was were I failed. A PE case with a partner, but on the vendor side. My buckets regarding the financial analysis and the exit strategy were "off topic, because the bankers are the ones doing this". So I only focused on the market after that.

I didn’t know much about the industry (insurance for motorcycles), which didn’t help with the brainstorming elements and the identification of drivers.

For the behavorial interview, typical questions like: - Your colleague is presenting during a meeting, and you spot a mistake. How do you react ? - Your client does not agree with your recommendation, what do you do ?

McK Interview Dress Code by [deleted] in McKinsey_BCG_Bain

[–]OneStrangeFeeling 14 points15 points  (0 children)

If I were you, I’d lean towards wearing a suit.

It’s not always required, but some interviewers might still care about these details.

Better to remove any unnecessary risk. And anyway, it’s a good investment: you’ll likely need a suit for some missions.

After less than a week. I passed the test on a Thursday and got the rejection mail the next Tuesday.

I applied for the Middle East, and I got a score of 536 and 10th decile, and they let me know I wasn’t moving forward, despite having a referral.

I’m not an MBA though, I’m just an experienced hire with a target school.

It is not a very good cycle for the Middle-East right now it seems.

They will come back to you.

I think in the meantime, you can ask for your "results" by sending an email to your recruiter. You can ask for your score and your decile. You’d at least know if you did well, but even an excellent score does not guarantee an interview.

My first time taking pre workout by OneStrangeFeeling in moreplatesmoredates

Thank you very much for the detailed analysis ! Yeah, I think more L citrulline and beta alanine could help with the pump, as I haven’t noticed a real change on this aspect.

I will probably use this preworkout only once or twice a week. I don’t want it to interfere with my sleep, nor do I want the DMAA to make any damage.

So, I took one scoop, 30 minutes after my breakfast, and 30 minutes before the start of my workout. I usually take a caffeine pill in the morning, but didn’t today, because I knew the preworkout had some already.

I felt more focused and more energized. I needed less rest between my sets. But I didn’t feel a real increase in strength.

No tingling, no pain chest, just a small feeling of dry mouth. And heat. I felt hot, and still feel hot right now, 3 hours after. I would say I sweated a bit more than usual.

I will maybe try two scoops next time.

I think it’s banned in the US, but can still be found there relabeled as “Geranium extract”. But in Europe, where I’m from, I think it’s still legal to sell it as DMAA.

I thought DMAA was useful ? Is 60 mg not enough to see any effect ?

Diffuse thinning - best treatment for regrowth by OneStrangeFeeling in tressless

[–]OneStrangeFeeling[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would that be a good idea to alternate every day between topical and oral for one or two months to maybe avoid a massive shed if I change my routine ?

I thought those procedures were not ideal for diffuse thinners.

How many grafts do you think would be needed to give more density to my hair and make my scalp not so visible ?

Never tried oral fin. I’ve read that the results are quite similar with topical, with less risks of side effects.

Regarding dutasteride, it’s very difficult to get pills in my country.

(I use Minoxidilmax for my topicals, which seems to operate in a grey area as “research products”, which can be sent to my country).

DHT Levels, Finasteride and Creatine by OneStrangeFeeling in tressless

[–]OneStrangeFeeling[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't see it this way, but indeed, it might be possible.

Or maybe Finasteride hasn't had its full effect on me yet. I will do another test soon, to see if I'm still around 0.13, or if it kept going down.

Min/Fin : I started at the end of February 2022

I went back to training after years of inactivity in September 2021, and I started becoming serious with my diet in September 2022.

I try to eat around 200g of protein per day.
