Like people mentioned above, it could differ based on the role. But I do know of a couple people who made the switch from specialist to generalist - they had to actually interview for it, but they got tons of help practicing with other Bainies and I’m sure the Bain experience gave them a leg up in the interview.

That's the title? We have a small pocket of specialist consultants that are client facing but role title will help clarify.

What’s the role? Easier for us to answer that Q vs share everything else 😊 but I think generally we don’t see much cross over from internal back to client side unless the employee started off in a client facing role. Could be worth asking your recruiter
