Please I need assistance. I have been trying to upload my passport since but kept on getting an error message. It is in PDF and 33kb in size. I have tried using a laptop n my phone,still the same thing.What do I do?

Your passport shouldn't be in PDF. Read item 6 of the attached.

I got it same day too. According to the mail, they promised to get back to us within two weeks upon receipt of the supporting documents, which they did.

benebaby77:
I sent my own on 26th, I haven't heard anything from them.....

When did you get the mail requesting for your supporting documents?

Jimwalex:
Hi bro..pls wl u be kind enough how u end up with crusader pensions.. I got an invitation to their test..pls help

Hello, I wrote the test in July, got a success mail a week after the test. Said I'll be scheduled for an interview. They didn't state when. Till date I've not been contacted. I have a coupla friends who wrote after me and passed too, but are yet to be called for interview. I really don't know how it works with them. Just prepare and go for the test. It won't hurt. I wish you Success.

haibe:
oh i received this message about 2 weeks ago. Am talking about invitation for the test jare

Ok. You prolly sent your docs before me. Sent mine on the 25th of oct and was told I 'd be contacted within two weeks. Reason for this mail. Let's remain hopeful.

haibe:

Who got a mail from McKinsey?

priscaoge:
Did u read Ur response to me before posting it? Even after typing d meaning, u went ahead to remind me that Google is Ur friend? Really? To prove what exactly? To show that d person that asked u a question is a dummy and u are an encyclopedia? How pathetic! What happens to typing d meaning without those sermon u put up there? It hurts u that someone pointed out that u are proud(which is true judging from Ur tone of response), now use that to know how others feel when u try to belittle them online just because they asked u a question. Pls shove Ur pathetic apologies. The did has been done, have a nice day too Dear.

I would have loved to let this slide without having to make a comment but permit me to say this because I understand how both parties feel.

Should you go through @ Samakus' post, you would see he's a humble guy that has never had any verbal confrontation with anyone on this thread despite the assistance he renders through his job posts. It sometimes baffles me how we interpret simple jokes and get furious especially when you don't have a personal beef with the person involved.
@ Priscaoge, you were so blunt and went overboard with your choice of words. I doubt you've read through his previous post to see how polite he is with his comments. I've taken time to go through the post that got you all cranky and matched it with yours all I can say is you're simply rude. I'm sorry to say.
It's a faceless platform no doubt but we shouldn't hide under this fact and say all sorts. He apologised, yet you rebuffed him. Common! Who does that. @Samakus, I don't know you in person, but I must say I'm so sorry about this. Don't take her words to heart, it doesn't define who you are. God bless you.

Laburos:
Congratulations. I hope and pray to join you at Nirsal

You dug out this 2007 post

Some people are just annoying. Gush!!!

You all asking for GMAT should please stop and not derail this thread. It's appalling how graduates behave these days. He said he applied in 2010 and advised you read up GMAT now everyone is asking for it. Go get GMAT and study. If he tells you to go read 2010 GMAT so you'll go buy it and start studying right? Smh! Because you feel DPR is stupid to set questions from 2010 GMAT. Please let's act as adults that we are. We should learn to process every little info we can gather from this thread without asking too many unnecessary questions. Do your research and prepare. If you think you really need to contact him then send him a pm please.

Well... I applied yesterday and dnt get a mailer daemon reply.

Guy I believe u. Mehn! See the number of peeps viewing your thread. U don win. You're the most beautifulest, handsomest and decentest Nairalander for real. Oops! Runs away to continue my job search before you use your own slow me down.

adeinfinit:

What other definition could there be for sales executive? Haba! I wish you success

For which position did you apply?

Associate Intern

Prinzofparis:
merge PDF files online ...just google merge PDF files and upload d separate files, it will generate a single merged PDF file containing all files in different pages.

the leadership form is like a document where u can edit using your computer.

Thank you very much for this. Yea, I already filled and saved the leadership form on my desktop. It's a PDF file. My NYSC and o'level certificates are saved in JPEG format. You think I can just go ahead with the merge PDF files like you said?

I think it's possible. The guys at the biz centre should do that.

Yea, but yours doesn't include transcripts. Did you attach your transcripts during application?

The instruction on how to send the docs says we should send as one attachment. Question is are we to fill then print out the leadership form and scan along with the other docs in PDF as a single attachment?

Prinzofparis:
I think its better you get the results from 3 to final and send too to be on d safe side...u can get it, type and convert to PDF and send...recession, jobs are scarce,...worse good jobs are veeeeery scarce and mckinsey is definitely a top job. ma guy no risk am!!..go d extra mile...

Yea bro. McKinsey is a bluechip coy that one can't but give one's best shot. I'm doing my best to get all required docs so I don't jeopardize my chance of getting an invite. Thanks

MidieMeliss:
His result in his unofficial transcript will be an exception of his final year result because NO university will release final year transcript unofficially, rather, they make your REQUEST for it Officially. If you go through their career section, there is a part where they mentioned that if you do not have the full transcript of each level, you can send the unofficial ones you have, and then ask your university to send the official transcript to them. This implies that McKinsey and company itself know that it is possible you do not have the complete version of your university transcript hence the requirement for an official transcript from your university.
Second scenario is this, even if you do have your complete transcript ( I do know universities that after students request for transcript, they give it to them in person, and I also know universities that will not give official transcript to the student, they will rather send it to the places that they need it which is usually work related or school related) the company still will ask you to get your school to send your transcript to them, for confirmation of your claims in the unofficial transcript sent to them.
so yes, he can send the unofficial transcript he has.

Yea right. Obviously I can't get the official transcript within the short space of time. I'll definitely send the unofficial transcript as suggested even though incomplete. Thanks

Prinzofparis:
Uniben.waeup.org click on log in top left, then click on forgot password or something like that. then use ur student I'd or matrix number and email u used to register back then...a link will be sent to u where u can print your results. Unfortunately, I am not sure final year will be available.

Uniben transcripts take like forever if you don't have someone pushing things for u.

Thanks bro. I've tried that and it worked but the email I'm talking about here was opened when I was still in secondary school and I don't use it anymore. I can't remember my password I used then. I'll send year 1 and 2 transcript I have. I hope they accept it.

Inioluwa01:
Hey bro. Finished from Uniben as well. Kindly fill me in on updates regarding the response from the portal admin please. I have my login details but it's not going through. Please, quote me when you have info. Thanks

Alright

NemB:
Hey, what school did yoi graduate from?
Does the school have an eportal? You should be able to backdate and download from your eportal

Uniben.... Sure we do. Like I said I can't lay my hands on my login details. I did a mail to d portal admin though. I hope to get a quick response.

funshore:
Pls. what an official and unofficial transcript?
Does it have to do with university graduate only?

Official transcript shows records of a student's work (subjects) and grades obtained. It's issued by the institution. It's unofficial if gotten from other sources like a print out from your student portal from the school's website.

That's a good one. I'll do just that. Thank you. Have you resent the supporting documents? I need some clarifications please. I sent you a pm.

MidieMeliss:
I actually uploaded an unofficial transcript when applying, and they still asked for the official and unofficial transcript. I guess they do have a reason for requesting for all these again. If you have your transcript from year one till final year, that could suffice while you process your official university transcript.

Thanks. I have just my year 1 nd 2 transcripts which I printed while I was still in school. Right now I can't access my login credentials to log into the the school's portal. Its been 6 years since I graduated. I'll find a way around it. Thanks

Hi bro, I attached my degree cert, cv and cover letter. The supporting docs required as stated in the mail I received today are transcripts, high school cert, NYSC cert and a "leadership form" attached for me to fill, scan and send to them. Though I was told to send an unofficial transcript(whatever that means) to them for now but the official transcript would be needed before I can be scheduled for interview.

Hi guys, I applied to McKinsey in September nd I just got a mail asking for some supporting documents. I can't lay my hands on my transcript within the time frame given. According to them, I could send an unofficial transcript for now. Would my degree certificate suffice while I process my transcript? I have two weeks to reply. Your prompt response is highly needed. Thanks guys.
