I graduated with Non-MBA masters from European target school but moved to the US permanently and completed an internship to get more consulting experience.
Since I heard that most of MBB has frozen lateral hiring for this year, when would be a good timing to apply for the entry-level positions with 2021 start date?

What’s the usual career progression for ppl in consulting (outside of MBB). Like what kind of jobs do people exit to, and what salary ranges are normal? Is 200k by 35ish abnormal, etc.? (I honestly have no clue, just trying to get a better gauge. And I know that the range varies widely)

Bain & Company Is it truly easier to get in a smaller MBB office?

Have heard a lot for different opinions on these. The logic is that it’s easier because there is a lot of supply in cities like NY, Chicago and SF, but the counter argument is that the offices with less supply are also way smaller and have a lot less demand.
