Applied to both McK and BCG for experienced entry level lateral / senior entry level lateral over a month ago but haven’t heard anything back—is that normal? Two YOE from a T2, solid strategy and PE work, great reviews, very active internally, top UG, referrals from managers. If it has been over a month does that mean no dice for an interview? Thanks in advance

Why didn’t u apply to Bain? Ur experience would probably fit better there

Doesn’t seem like they have a strong hiring appetite at the moment. If anyone from Bain NA wants to refer I wouldn’t say no lol. Spent about a year in my firm’s private equity group
