I have master degree and 2 years experience in Oliver Wyman and I am now applying for BCG. What role do you think I can reasonably target? If they recognise my seniority it should be “Consultant”, but I know is not always the case…

If it helps, in OW I mostly worked in transportation and automotive industries and moving to BCG I’d like to double down on that

Free interviewing advice!

If you are in an interview and you find yourself talking over the interviewer repeatedly and they actually cut you off mid sentence, several times - please take a hint. You are talking too much, your answers are too long, and you are blowing it.

Sometimes the most important thing you can do in an interview is to know when to shut up and just listen and then be brief in your answers.

So easy!
