Are all job offers from business schools coming through the internship the year prior? Is any body just straight up applying for full time roles? Just wondering what your job opportunities are like if you didn’t enjoy your internship, didn’t take part in one for whatever reason, or are in PT program. For example, do MBB/Accenture/B4 interview people that didn’t intern for them?

Most consulting firms will pull directly from their list of summer interns. They do it because 1.) it is easier for them and 2.) the interns are already vetted and battle tested.

A benefit for a summer time intern (I can only speak for the Big 4) is having the second year of your MBA paid off. This only happens if you of course receive a FT offer after your summer internship.

Is it really worth it to proceed with a company like Amazon for 25k+. I live in CA so $ is imp but I do have a toddler so WLB is also imp. Both role are Sr. MGR.
