Any Oliver Wyman partner willing to connect? I’ve been interviewing for an SC position for 6 months now - have spoken to 5 partners - Done a case, a take home and a panel presentation followed by a fit with head of practice lead. I was told that the decision was - “we find you to be a fit for SC and not associate - you will have to move to NY (Dallas was aways discussed). After confirming I’ll be ok moving(2X) - I was told there is 1 more round with talent development manager. So so confused!!!

Talent manager is quite like "head of HR" (never say this to them).

Won't be a case interview, so take it easy

OP, FWIW - while this sounds super frustrating, I think it’s much better to crush it for a year as an SC and get promoted vs struggling as an ASC (wouldn’t necessarily be your case, but I’ve seen it happy many times). Sounds like you have a good head on about this all things considered - would love to have you at OW!

If it's with a talent development manager it's probably not a case interview and just a chill chat about logistics

With this level of commitment, I would love to have you on my cases and would give you bigger opportunities to make Associate in a year. I am in NYO. Dm me when you get here.

After 6 months you might have developed into Associate. It’ll be easier for you to get promoted faster if you come in as Associate. In theory it doesn’t matter but in practice people will perceive you as SC and will be harder for them to justify rating you as Associate straight away. Whereas struggling Associate is still associate as a starting point.

Not my experience. A star SC is promoted quickly. Someone who is barely an associate ends up viewed negatively by some partners. I’d much rather be the SC promoted quickly.

One of the reasons I want to transition from industry to consulting (tier 1) is that I get frustrated when I have to collaborate with mediocre people. My assumption is that Tier 1 consulting firms hire really sharp people and if I can get in, I’ll be collaborating with folks on top of their game (not expecting much from clients). I’m aware there are personal aspects I need to work on like my mindset, patience etc etc, but I just get so frustrated with blatant stupidity.
