Look on Built In Chicago. Those are the companies actually hiring.

Avoid Groupon and Grubhub and especially Sears. Expedia is ok. McDonalds is trying but moves at a Glacial pace. Pepsi/Gatorade/Quaker is good but not revolutionary.

I second GrubHub. Had a terrible interview there, where it was very clear that the head of creative and the marketing director did not get along, and the creatives seemed like they were constantly being put through the wringer for naught.

I like places that aren’t too choosy

Once saw a job posting at Crown Imports actually say as a preferred requirement “MBA from a Top 10 school”...I mean get over yourself Crown.

it’s more common-place than you’d think.

The Booths will look down on the Kelloggs. But both look down on everyone else

Been working in Big 4 FDD for a little under two years, interviewing past 2-3 months for FDD, strategy, and IB. Received an offer from a MM FDD group for a 25% pay bump, but mainly looking to pivot out as I’ve burned out of FDD and want to move into a more finance focused role. Currently moved into second rounds at a senior strategy role for a F500 and case study stage for two boutique IB’s.

Would it be dumb to turn down the guaranteed FDD role and see how the others turn out?
