I’m looking to leave consulting. But a McKinsey recruiter reached out to me recently about interviewing. I just don’t have the passion to go through case interviews and then actually work in another consulting company as a PPT monkey. Am I crazy ?

ACN 🐟 are any of your ACN sites working? Just realized my email has been down for an hour... I can't get on the portal or email web service either but skype is working?

Currently at a valuation focused strategy boutique. Is it possible to transition to PE/VC/HF post-M7 mba (non-HSW)? How hard is it to make that jump and compete with ex-IB/PE candidates?

With hurricane Dorian coming through, I’m in a “zone a” evacuation and our offices have closed for Tuesday and Wednesday but they still want us to work from home??? Am I the only one confused by that?

Is it safe to go to Atlantic City and stay overnight, given Covid? I know they’ve reduced table size to 3 players, put up shields, and every other slot machine is closed for distance. I’m just wondering how is going to a casino (and keeping to yourself) different than going to, say, a mall? Is it ok to stay in hotels?

Any female MM/ENT AEs with SaaS or Fintech experience looking to make a move? Series D company positioned to IPO in 2 years. Would be wild if this works lol

Just had my comp call and I feel I'm making much less than my peers. I've always been rated a 4/5. Advanced degree (non mba), National Advisory, NYC, PI-Analytics, Sr 3. How much should I be making?

If I have delta silver medallion, do I get space-available comp upgrades on China Eastern and other SkyTeam partners for domestic flights (Chinese city to another Chinese city)?

I recently started at a larger software company as an AE. As I’m getting more into the process, I’m finding things odd. Like, cold calls and emails are metrics I’m judged on more than closed won business. I know that’s part of the job but it seems strange I’m judged on it so heavily. And, I seem to be the first real outside AE hire as everyone else seems to have been promoted up from SDR roles, including all of my direct management. I’m questioning if I made the right move. Stick it out or look?

Interviewed final round with L.E.K. Consulting last week and got an email today from talent about a new associate program. Any insight about this? I’ve yet to hear back on final round decisions.

Remember this while you're interviewing: the nicest an employer will ever be to you is when they're trying to recruit you. If they jerk you around then, heed that as a warning accordingly.

From the hiring folks, any tips on navigating the initial interview (the 30 min or less one) with the company’s recruiter? I’ve sent off apps and the recruiter initial interviews are starting to trickle in. Haven’t done any yet but have 3 scheduled for next week. I’ve done some in the past and some led to further interviews others didnt but including tell why some went one way some went the other. Any and all tips and insight appreciated!

Having super anxiety right now. Really want to leave consulting but afraid I won’t be able to find anything with a comparable salary and better work/life — my clients seem to be running just as fast hard. I do like parts of my job, particularly my colleagues. But we are so understaffed it’s insane.
