I get very few interviews too. My gpa is kind of low though

LEK to level with you - from T2 you’re gonna have like 1-2 shots max at that list so make sure you’re shooting >90%. It’s sad but MBB gets you way more interviews. That being said - having interviewed a lot of folks from my current fund - a lot of the MBB folks are pretty unprepared (shockingly).
Really? I assumed LEK would get a lot since they do so much PE DD work
Yah I mean I definitely get some, but more in the MM / LMM realm vs the UMM consultant friendly firms

I was in same spot from T2. Honestly, take what you can get but don’t compromise. I’d say express some interest but from T2 if you have an offer from a >2-3B aum firm you should probably take it unless you have a strong reason not to. One way to move up in size is to prove you can get offers. Take interviews from first few opps that you would be happy with (even if not dream job) and progress. Once HH know you can hunt as a candidate they’ll push you to better opps.
Yeah this worked for me coming from a T2. Took some reps with LMMs to prove myself before I got looks from UMMs
