BainšŸ , do you ever see a day where your firm opens up MBA sponsorship for experienced hires? Why is it restricted to only those that joined out of undergrad?

ā€¦If you can place into the same school, donā€™t see why it makes a difference

If you join as an AC they do offer this

@C1, Interesting! Is there any minimum tenure required? For example, can only apply for sponsorship after X months into the roleā€¦

Who is telling you itā€™s restricted to those out of undergrad? Thatā€™s not true. If you join as an experienced AC and perform, then sponsorship is an option. No set timelines but usually 1-3 years in spending what level you join

Been interviewing with D, EY and Accenture at M level. Keep feeling a bait and switch to SC. I'm M currently. The feedback has only been that I "haven't worked on large enough projects" and that 1 yr as an SC to M timeline would allow me to "learn their capabilities, approaches, etc".

Anyone else face this? I'm a bit frustrated. High performer, MBA... How much will this effect salary, if I accept an SC vs. M offer?

Didn't end up making the cut in Strategy consulting case interviews. Would really like to do strategy / S&O some day. I love using data to inform decision-making.

Wondering if it would make sense to continue consulting in implementation then try to pivot again in the future or at another level - or drop consulting & try to get a strategy job at a startup or maybe do something else at a larger company and try to pivot internally.

Background is tech + MBA. Any insight appreciated!

Have worked in both banking and consulting, but still looking for a combination of things:
1. Something thatā€™s less quantitative / producing and checking numbers constantly
2. Managerial and people-focused - not just an IC role
3. Ideally remote with some kind of international flavor

2 years post-MBA, 9 total YoE, incl. MBA

Any suggestions?
