I exited from Cap1 BA manager to MBB. International with non-target MBA. It was 16 months ago in the peak of hiring storm so I think it will be hard to replicate the trajectory.

Hey, I am a Senior BA on the Discover Integration team at Capital One. Could you give me advice on how to get an interview shortlist at MBB?

From Corporate Strategy, definitely an option. Multiple peers have left for MBB. Otherwise, getting an MBA or going to a fintech / big tech / another financial institution are common options.

I think the most popular option from Strategy lately is exiting into another part of Capital One, typically through the BA job family, and driving forward some of the initiatives you may have worked on in Strategy.

unrelated, but what was first year comp for the strategy team like?

This seems like a reversal of what most folks want to do 🤷‍♂️

Most folks that come in as experienced hires come for the WLB and culture and don’t want to go (back) to consulting. Internal mobility is big here, so people often switch teams internally when they get bored or want to move up. In terms of exits, tech, fintech and other banks are all popular

I’m aware there are personal aspects I need to work on like my mindset, patience etc etc, but I just get so frustrated with blatant stupidity.
