This is helpful! Thanks mr. consultant!

No but the odds of getting the job are. I think anyone from consulting can end up at any company with the right circumstances. It's just a question of whether or not you have the experience, network, storytelling ability,etc. to convince them to hire you. More likely that someone from MBB will than someone from EY but it's not impossible

C2, definitely agree with your latest post 100%

As long as you aren’t dead set on a PE/VC exit, it’s not that different as it is mostly driven by your network, experience, fit, etc.

Yes

Yes these days FAANG job descriptions (mid level and up) literally write out they’re only considering candidates from MBB and one or two other top strategy firms. So my guess is it’s not impossible to get those gigs but a lot harder to get into the door.

Could be talking about EYP, strategy&, etc.

So I had been working as medical interpreter up to the early part of this year. Today, during an interview, the Director with whom I was interviewing genuinely urged me to consider pursuing a career as a PA or even attempt to go to medical school. I had considered it in passing before but today was about the third or fourth time that someone had earnestly nudged me in that direction. Has anyone here made such a career pivot before? I love working in healthcare, there’s nothing like it.
