What’s your starting position?
- if you’re here already: We probably wouldn’t sponsor it. Can get pretty deep without a degree but most of our data scientists are PhDs. Masters is a weird in between.
- if you’re not here: won’t make breaking in much easier. We recruit from the deep talents pools first; way more candidates at top MBA, PhD, JD, and MD programs

No idea, but kinda weird to read this question given how the first pass abv for Masters in Business Analytics is MBA as well.

Analytics master student trying to figure out how bad their investment decision was?

I did a one year masters (not business analytics but similar) and it put me at a weird place for MBB, McK considered my program MBA level but Bain and BCG wanted me to start entry level

Usually need masters + signif work exp (or really just work exp) to come in above undergrad level

Hi MBB Software Engineer fishes,

I recently applied for a position in one of McKinsey’s recently acquired firm for Senior Software Engineer (Team Lead).

The interview process is so damn easy - A medium level Hackerrank test, interview with company CTO and then behavioural round with a McKinsey Director and offer extended.

Wondering if this is a red flag.

If a job posting specifies certain education requirements that you don't have, is it still worth applying or will you be automatically skipped over? I truly believe I have the experience to make the degree irrelevant, but if the system will just skip over me, I don't want to waste my time on these.

Would you ever accept a ground-floor bedroom facing the street (but set back from the pavement) in London? Residential, upscale zone 2 neighbourhood (think Victoria Park Village, East Dulwich, Fulham), but like everywhere in London, there are some rougher bits nearby. I sleep with the window open for fresh air, so I’m concerned about burglary and assault (I’m a woman). There’s the option of using an internal bedroom instead, but it’s not nearly as nice as the street-facing one.
