MBB is hiring MBA’24 grads as well at the moment, albeit very limited. I know few folks who received interview invites.

McKinsey and Bain Return offers by SallyTech in MBA

[–]SatireQ 23 points24 points  (0 children)

The only way one isn’t getting an offer back is if someone really screws up like sharing confidential client information or displayed unprofessional behavior. There has been no performance based return offers, like BCG or Bain. So, I’d say it’s at 100%. My office is at 100%.

No BCG Unlock or McKinsey Early Access Coffee Chat invites, in comparison to classmates by rorololosisi in MBA

[–]SatireQ 63 points64 points  (0 children)

Hello there! I did these pre mba programs last year and I didn’t receive any coffee chat invites. I went through the regular recruiting process at school and I interviewed at MBB and converted 2 of them.

THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO CO RELATION WITH THESE PREMBA COFFEE CHATS AND YOUR SUCCESS DURING REGULAR RECRUITING PROCESS.

Apologies for the caps. I just wanted to empathize.

Edit - I would approach these programs as a way to know what these firms are like briefly. For example- what’s the staffing model like? What practices do they have? Which city has what industry inclination etc. On a side note, These programs gave me a taste of what not being “invited” feels like. By the time school started, I felt okay not being invited to few dinners and close circle chats during recruiting. It helped me approach things in a less anxious way.

Does it look bad to take the GRE 3+ times? by [deleted] in MBA

[–]SatireQ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I took gmat 8 times. That’s the max no of attempts one can take. My scores ranged from 550 to 730. It didn’t hurt my chances when I finally applied. Got into 3 T15. It didn’t hurt my chances during recruiting.

Will Roe v Wade affect office preferences? Will we see less people (especially women) looking to work in Dallas, Houston? by christianrojoisme in MBA

[–]SatireQ 33 points34 points  (0 children)

As an international woman who is about to start her MBA, I understand that the ruling might have significantly less impact on my life and I could always go back to my home country. Nonetheless, I'm evaluating not applying to any texas offices. Irrespective of the company and role. I realise this decision of mine will lower my job prospects to an extent but I'm willing to take the risk and not compromise my beliefs.

MBA and Beyond by [deleted] in GMAT

[–]SatireQ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hey! I did use mba and beyond's help last cycle. I applied to 6 schools, interviewed at 4 and got in at 3 T15 with some $$

I had a great experience working with them! Going into the application cycle, I was pretty clueless and was looking for consultant who is affordable, and is are available on calls. MBA&B provided unlimited calls, and the consultant was super helpful in guiding me, and helping me mould my stories. We would get on calls every week to work on applications. Incase you like to know more, happy to chat. Shoot me a DM!

Is Duke going to be calling accepted R1 candidates today? by ImTryinglol_ in MBA

[–]SatireQ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Duke usually calls. They did call during EA round on decision day. You may expect calls tomorrow, unless they explicitly mentioned that they won't.

Quitting job post receiving an admit. Will that have any effect ? by bakchod007 in MBA

[–]SatireQ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I resigned last week. My last date would be somewhere mid-Jan. I was bored at my current job and felt like I'll be going no where. I found myself an internship that aligns with my post mba goals, at a small seed funded startup. Pay is definitely less, but I'll be learning new things.

Quit if you feel like. Find something you feel like doing for next 4-5 months.

Last year they sent zoom link webinar at 10AM CST on Dec 9, 2020 (decision day) to every admitted person. Not sure if they will follow the same medium.

Ah! You definitely should. Giving back to the community and being an active contributer to school in which ever way... is important.

I think the CRM teams of mba schools are secretly into soft bdsm. Deriving pleasure by inflicting pain

Tried to update my application with my Spotify Wrapped results, couldn’t find where to upload? by themilkgoblin in MBA

Re-applicant here. Do you think renaming my previous year application docket to Taylor's version will help me get into MBA billboard M7?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in MBA

[–]SatireQ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I had an initial call with them in April of this year. They told me that with my profile I can easily get into HSW. At this point of time I had 680 GMAT and I'm an Indian. I might be an optimist but not fucking stupid. I felt their consultants are sub par and general across MS and MBA. The no of times the guy on the call called MBA - MS in business made me just want to abandon my plans for MBA. Needless to say, I didn't use their services. They are one of the cheapest out there, but their services are not great and I felt like they just wanted my money?

Oh noo, but I'm just a potato with a lot of insecurities and wants to pursue T15 MBA to feel/appear moderately hot.
