McKinsey & Company A little confused by McKinsey roles. What are the big differences between a generalist associate, implementation associate, and digital associate? Are the latter 2 just constrained to a certain type of functional work? Frankly open to all, would I have a better chance of landing role with latter 2? McKinsey & Company

Honestly nothing. If you’re in implementation or digital you get some extra trainings, and you’re affiliated to a specific service line but we have very flexible staffing and generally junior folks (EM and below) can do what they want.

And no the hiring bar is the same for all of them, won’t be easier to get in via latter 2 roles.

It’s not 100% constrained but yea, there will be some light pressure to work with specific stuff if you are digital or implementation

Does anyone know what an IT Network Inventory Specialist is as a designation?

I have a business idea in the VR/AR space utilizing AI. However, I lack skill sets to evaluate viability or to create an MVP. Neither do I have a network to tap into.

My plan is taking classes to deepen my knowledge while joining and actively participating in communities to find collaborators.

Does this approach make sense or do you recommend other approaches? If it makes sense, do you have any recommendations for classes or communities?

Look forward to hearing your experiences and wisdom!
