Vast majority of openings at McK, BCG, and Bain are generalist roles. With an MPH, you'd probably come on as an associate at BCG depending on experience. Best way to apply is through campus recruiting and/or referrals really. If you know anyone at the firms they'd be your best bet, you want someone who will advocate
