McKinsey asks job applicants to talk to a fake AI client during interviews
Consulting firm McKinsey & Company will require entry-level candidates to speak with an artificial intelligence simulation of a client as part of their interview process.
The new interview requirement for applicants
McKinsey plans to introduce this change to its hiring pipeline soon. The firm intends for these conversations to last about ten minutes each. Candidates will interact with a digital representation designed to mimic real client interactions.
Goals behind the artificial intelligence tool
The simulation aims to reflect eighty percent of scenarios consultants face in daily work. This approach allows recruiters to assess how applicants handle specific professional situations quickly. The technology provides a standardized way to test soft skills without human bias.
