AlixPartners fish, I have tried a few times to connect on a few roles, contacting recruiters or applying cold. I always get rejected and cannot figure out why. My resume has worked well at MBB, T2 and B4 (interviews and final rounds at MBB and offers from T2). I cannot crack the code for AlixPartners. Any insight what could be a filter here that’s unique? I suspect it’s my non-target state school, but not sure. (15+ YOE).

Get yourself a strong referral and get that person to review your resume. Alix is a very unique firm that looks at your experience far more than other firms. If you can try to show any experiences you have 1) Driving results for PE owned companies
2) Generally leading large transformations that have driven tangible top and bottom line results

So had my first interview in one of the big 4 but it got me completely off guard. First one was call screening and then a technical interview. Now what I didn’t expect is rather than technicalities they focused on the consulting a lot more. Now the role that was marketed was technical/Architect and they even said that in current capacity you’ll work here as a technical person. I don’t think it went well. Coming from a technical background I was hoping for coding .
Is it always like this?
