For me it has always been starting with partner and ending with senior managers or md

“Just” an MD?

funny

Highest I got in my interviews was MD. But I'm in Tech Risk, so maybe it's a different than actual consulting service line interviews.

What service line and what role and team?

I passed my technical interview with a SM, then had back to back behavioral interviews with a Manager & Director a week later. Now I’m scheduled to have an interview with a MD. Just wanted to get an idea if it’ll be my last interview or not. It’s for SA in Operations Advisory.

Depends on level you are posting for. MDs are almost always in the chain of interviews but not the final say. Usually all hires go up a few partner levels for final approval.

My interviews were with two principals and an MD. Order was based on scheduling availability

What’s difference between Sr. Manager and MD

Highest for mine was with a Managing Director (tech consulting side)

Hi all,
I’m currently working for a small technical consulting start-up firm. I make good money, have great benefits, and they seem very happy with the work I’m doing, so I know I could move up quickly. However, tech consulting is definitely not my dream job. I want to get into data analytics, and I have an offer from a big company to do just that. I’ve only been at my current company for about 8 months, but I don’t ever see myself loving this job. How do I know when it’s time to make a change?
