Hi everyone, I'm an MBA student graduating in December this year. I interviewed with Bain earlier but did not land the offer. I also interviewed with two boutique firms and it seemed not a good fit and the perceived chance to get in is slim. Also applied to Accenture Strategy Consultant program but again it's a rejection. I am frustrated as the campus recruiting wrapped up. Any insights on what consulting firms are actively hiring? Financial Services Pre-MBA background. Love to chat more!

I got a message from a recruiter this morning who has tried to recruit me before, but it just wasn’t the right timing for me. It doesn’t feel like good timing this time either as I’ve been with my current firm for less than a year after leaving industry, but the firm who has reached out would put me in a role where I got to focus on my area of expertise all the time without having to pick up projects in other areas if they can’t find other managers. What would you do?
