Love how none of the responses came from anyone at MBB.

@OP I don't think referrals for internships are common, especially for someone who is at a target school anyway and we don't know personally.

Yeah, if he has a 3.8 in CS at UChicago, he should be in good shape. Make sure he can show that he truly understands what consulting is and definitely wants to pursue it.

Agree with BCG1. Also, referrals don't carry much weight with us unless they are from partners.

Well I have two friends who are partners but you're right they wouldn't waste their time unless it was a personal favor.

Hmm bummer. He's a smart kid who has done an interdisciplinary undergrad path as a comp sci major with supplementary science courses (TAed Biochem as a soph). He also has a decent gpa ~3.8 at a tough school. Any suggestions for strategically applying to MBB internships?

He should befriend the folks at eckhart - they have great connections with MBB

Should I specialize in Blockchain or AI? I’m a freshman in a CS degree and I can’t decide.

Regarding AI, I find this field fascinating but I feel like it requires a lot of experience, degrees and diplomas.

As I'm moving to a new role in a small company, I have a doubt about my salary structure like the Basic salary part is only 20,000 while my take home is 62k after all deductions.

I'm concerned because the leave encashment & other things totally depends on the basic salary.

Are there not any rules for the Basic salary to be at a certain % of CTC or it depends totally on the company?

Also PF deductions they are offering only 1800 p.m but considering 20000 basic it should be 12% of 20000 right?
