Offers come after the interviews, not just from a referral.
I just applied on the website and did the online assessment, got my interview, and then the job. No referrals, no networking

Can I dm you both for tips?

I am confused. Are you currently in consulting? Want in? What response are you seeking? Are you connecting trying to get a referral to MBB or T4 before you apply? Or what is the purpose?

You post reads like connecting leads to an offer and you're shocked it hasn't. Or are you trying to connect to people who don't respond.

The answer is people are being hired. But I feel like that is not your real question

I’m in EYP looking to move to MBB or other big4s. The intent of my post was to ask if folks are getting offers, how are they getting it via cold applications, referrals,etc? Because even I have reached out has either not responded or given me a dry response

I’ve only gotten offers from roles I found through personal introductions so far. Every cold application, and even ones submitted through referrals, haven’t gone anywhere. Tbf I haven’t been spamming out my resume though (yet)

This is always most effective. Spamming your resume gets too demoralizing. AI and you both know you don't really want those jobs, so the rejections rack up.

When did you apply? I’ve been getting no response from BCG LinkedIn network

I’ve put in 18 applications in 2weeks with Indeed no luck- I’ve had 2 interview still waiting- I’ve got 15 years experience and great references I think it’s my age😩😩😩😩😩

It's probably not you. Lots of people, really almost all of them, have their head in the sand about current macroeconomic conditions generally and the job market in particular.

Looking to transition to MBB if that matters.

Read that McK is paying 2K higher than BCG this year which means BCG will probably raise again next year to at least match. However, they can’t just copy McK with 2K to match because that would look bad so they’ll have to beat it again. Then McK and Bain will follow. Barring a devastating recession, I’m guessing this means MBB is all getting raises again next year?
