Don't know if there are explicit cut-offs, but remember that it's often a holistic evaluation. The disadvantage of having a lower GPA is that someone who has similar ECs / work experiences AND higher grades will stand out more. In a way, just by meeting (and hopefully having fun!) with other applicants at events/etc., you can get a sense. Hope this framing helps!

Thanks for the feedback!

Depends on the group usually. 3.0 for more IT audit / accountingy roles.

3.3 is hard cut off for consulting based roles at the big four but you realistically want above a 3.5.

Probably 3.5 hard cut off for big three but want above 3.7

GPA cutoff is correct but isn’t the end all be all. I got final round interviews at a T2 and had offers from 2 Big 4 companies with a 3.3

Depends on your major more than anything

3.7 GPA means something very different for engineering vs some humanities degrees

What about for finance/business degree

If you have a referral you can get away with a 3.2, not sure how much lower would be passable

For most strategy (MBB/T2) firms 3.5 is the cutoff to be considered, but if you are at the bottom end of that make sure to network and have a pretty convincing story.

Also campus recruiting can help remedy this if you’re at a top school

For sure! I had a 3.6 and definitely didn’t feel counted out that often - it only impacts your shot at getting an interview, past that it’s a relatively equal playing ground.

Did just fine at EY with a 3.66

Okay I have a 3.57 how would this be perceived?

Any views?
I am thinking beyond just verifying if the candidate is not lying on the current salary but what if they don't even have the budget to what the candidate has asked as expectation.

Hi, just got an offer from A&M as D (Performance Improvement). The base from Glassdoor is accurate (US as a benchmark). Bonus is much higher than my current. Anyway the base seems very low compared to S& SA in US.
1) is it true that the base is that low compared to junior-mid level at S&?
2) i am based in Asia, any different rate compared to other region at A&M?
3) the TC can be 3x that what I can get currently, but i can make partner in few years at PwC. Do you think A&M should be considered?

I’ve noticed on Glassdoor, salaries for my level (Director) are higher than my base but have similar bonus opportunity. At what level of pay gap would you push or make a stink? In hindsight I should have pushed more during the hiring process. At 160k base now, seeing ranges in the 170s to low 180s. These are specific to my current company.
