Most of them get assigned to a workstream and have to deliver something. But noone counts on that deliverable for the success of the project. It is designed mostly to test whether the intern can deliver something well or not.

Yes to both

You need to do decently well, the team you work with will basically decide if you get a return offer or not.

Both. You basically don’t do any real work, but you still need to do what you’re assigned.

like

Dont we give guaranteed return offers to interns or is that covideal over?

Yah

It depends

If you’re interning and planning to return full time, would recommend putting your best foot forward. Relationships matter. Depends on case how much you need to deliver.
How much you prove yourself useful in the first couple weeks / how well or not well the case is going midway tends to determine your responsibilities later in the summer.

What is the obsession and appeal for MBB among MBA grads? Is it really that amazing - from afar it seems like it may be romanticized (maybe not the right word) among applicants. I know it’s way better than the work I do now, so I’m not knocking MBB at all. It’s super impressive. Maybe a better way to phrase it is that MBA applicants seem to have a fairy tale view of consulting as a whole. I get the impression that people think a job in consulting is a magic ticket anywhere

I received a job offer from company A and am currently negotiating salary. I have an interview with company B next week and know that they offer a higher base pay. There’s no guarantee that I will be offered a job at company B but my gut is telling me that company B would be a better fit for me. Should I accept the offer from company A, continue interview process with company B and then rescind my offer with company A if company B offers me a job? Will I be burning bridges?
