Can anyone please advise brackets for a Senior Consultant role in Capco in UK? Glassdoor just gives average but trying to figure out what is reasonable to ask for.

I have an interview next week for a consultant role that I thought was along the level of my experience for a strategy role.

What is the reputation of Teneo in the consulting world? I understand they're pretty big in political PR but their consulting branch appears to be quite new. i have been offered a position as an entry level Associate consultant and I am wondering whether I should take it.

Hi everybody, wondering best way to apply to consulting companies in ME. Currently a consultant in boutique US firm w/ 1.5 YOE a b.s. in business, masters in analytics and a fluent Arabic speaker. Ideally MBB for exit opp/ later on but anything top 10 is good imo. Also how does the pay work? If I'm from America will I get paid the American salary in USD? How's the WLB? Regular consultant 60-70? Can anyone provide a referral? Ive been to MBB final rounds off little prep before so confident now.

Any advice on MBA application timeline (e.g., who and when to ask for letters of rec, essay preparation)?

Would you recommend hiring a consultant?

Thinking of switching jobs..

working as a network tech for an ISP for a year now, no prior tech exp but prior professional/management exp. Goal: coding exp by eoy yr2

I applied for and was offered a IT team position at a resort which pays 20% more and involves more diverse skills, networking, some sysadmin, potential .net development exp and scripting.

Current employer offers 21% raise and 30% coding duties. Dept head cannot give it in writing... coding is as helper to a consultant.

Wut do?

Applied to LEK “Consultant” Role and ended up receiving an email invitation to the “Associate” first round interviews… I have a Master’s and 2 YoE.. what gives ?

Out of interest I have interviewed for a people consultant role in London on a ftc. How many people do they take through the final interview process? Just trying to weigh up my chances.

MBB 🐠 - how is hiring currently? I’m a data analytics consultant and looking to move. Don’t have an MBA though, not sure if that is a mandate. Can someone explain the process a bit. Will I need a referral? Thank you so much!

Serious feedback and answers requested for D commercial offer.
Currently a Mgr, applied to Mgr role, Recruiter extended me an offer, however it was for a Sr Consultant position, and said they would put me on a fast track path to Mgr. They also alleged that they want to ensure I come in and learn the D way and learn their methods so I have a better chance of success.
Q. Is there such a thing as a fast track path? I find this offer almost offensive, since I am already performing at the Mgr-level.

Hi fishes,

Is shifting from Business Analyst role to Assoc Consultant a good move? Like work wise I am getting same . But does designation really matter here while changing between companies?

What does a Consultant role in big 4 equate to in MBB? (…if at all lol)

Super excited about an opportunity to exit to a growth strategy role at a startup (basically a consultant for their clients exclusively for their product) and trying to think of contingencies for worst case scenario before so accept the offer. Is it realistic to go into strategy consulting if this doesn’t work out or is startup experience not looked at favorably at big consulting firms?

Hi Fishes,

I have been offered consultant role by EY. HR in verbal communication told me about the salary structure as Fixed + Variable % + Joining Bonus .
The offer letter mentions the Fixed and Joining Bonus but doesn't say anything about the Variable Portion. Is this okay or do I need to talk to HR about this?

TIA

Consulting was never my end game, always planned to exit after manager at some point for a program manager/strategy role in industry. I am currently a year 2 consultant who would be up for manager next year and could be making around 150k. I have an offer to exit to industry for 140k (10k higher than current salary), trying to decide if it’s better to leave now or hold out for the manager tittle.

(Base compensation)

For former Accenture consultants (or other consulting firms in general) who pivoted from consulting to FAANG:


1. Why did you decide to move into FAANG?
2. What do you do now?
3. What skills from consulting help the most in your new role (I.e, what skills should I focus on developing myself?)


I’m interested in gaining bus/tech experience and considering pivoting to big tech within 2 years to find a better sense of direction.

Current level: CL9 (consultant) (2.5 YOE)
Undergrad: Engineering
