Got rejection email from McKinsey for a summer internship, but it said they saw potential in my application and encouraged me to apply for a full-time position. Do they actually mean that?

Info-tech research group - Director role. Is a pay range of 240K to 250k a good range to start with. I feel like I should have negotiated for more. There is 50% sales component to it.

Referred a guy to my firm. They low balled him. I told him to tell them to f off. I am proud of myself and disgusted with my firm’s leadership. Anybody hiring for strategy and operations transformation consulting roles focused on consumer finance? Disgusted to the point I’d rather move on sooner than later..

Referred a colleague to ACN’a vet development program. He’s got a Masters prior to deployment and immediately started a coding bootcamp post deployment because he wants to find a stable job. His application’s been in “Received” status for over a month. Are we going through a hiring freeze no one knows about or is it normal to have to wait this long for someone to just look at a potential candidate’s resume?

There are two teams of consultants, each on long term client accounts, doing similar work. One team must come to client site every weekday, one team comes as little as they like.

There aren't enough people who want to go in five days a week, relative to client demand.

If you give the office team nothing for the burden of commuting etc, their retention and morale declines, as they leave the account or firm for a role allowing more WFH.

What do you offer the office team to fix this?

I got interviews with three T2 strategy firms. I am waiting for a referral to go through from a fourth. This is probably the dumbest question ever, but… how much is enough? The process of looking for firms, contacting people and pitching myself to get a referral is beginning to get draining (I have no contacts, so I am literally cold calling dozens daily), and it takes away time from my case prep. I assume that out of 4 firms, with good case prep, at least one will give me an offer… right?
