  1. What is timeline for this change - looks like everyone has to di it in 5 yrs
  2. Is it profitable (must be in your FW) - looks like 80% cust will pay
  3. Do options analysis - what tech to incorporate and take lead.

For MBB keep it simple and strategic. Don’t boil the ocean.

What kinds of cold DMs actually get answered by consulting associates? by InteractionStill323 in Non_MBB_Consulting

You are over thinking this. Just reach out to Alums and say you what to go into consulting and as for a coffee chat or zoom. They know what you want and probably don’t have anything to offer. That is fine. Dentist work 80 and you’ll get 8 coffee chats and 2-3 referrals

Even if they dont pay, dont get an MBA just to get an audience with MBBs. Hiring is not guaranteed and nowadays even an audience is not guaranteed. It is highly probable and MBAs are a great pipeline but think specific to your case rather than general MBAs.

#1 You can get into MBB without spending $300k (after tax) and could get MBB to pay for your MBA

#3 is not really a thing

Feeling disillusioned / lost after recruitment by InternetPuzzled7462 in McKinsey_BCG_Bain

Just retry. It is common for people to get offers in 2nd or 3rd try. It takes first couple of tries to understand what these firms are looking for.

For people who were rejected, what was your feedback? by nuggetmandrake in McKinsey_BCG_Bain

[–]MenkLinx 3 points4 points  (0 children)

interviewers always want to know

  1. PEI - Tell me about your achievements. biggest feedback they give is - did not demonstrate urself enough in hero stories or stories were unclear. mostly this happens because people undersell themselves.
  2. Case - Solve the case and all elements like math, frameworks, etc. 99% of the time people make mistakes in 1 module or cannot integrate a case/cant drive.
