Yes, I joined as an experienced industry hire into the generalist consultant track. There’s a large effort being made to identify and recruit industry hires (large referral bonus + recently launched firm-wide referral contest in North America).

Best to find a friend in the office she wants to join who can refer her. If she’s good, they’ll happily do it and make extra $’s for doing so. Good luck!

Interesting. How have you found integrating into the firm. I am guessing this is only for industry hires and not from other consulting firms.

Thanks! Anyone have any contacts in the DC office?

It's always tough, but this year it has felt impossible to stay on top of grading. Sure, there are online quizzes the computer can grade for you, but that data is so limited. What about the steps they took to get that answer on the math problem? I need to see it to know what they missed... Between submission of blurry photos and going through the process of uploading, downloading, and squinting to see their work, it takes me 20x longer to grade work for my digital kids. #thestruggle

The first rule of overemployment is dont talk about overemployment to anyone outside your house. :). Second: always protect the main job. Third: As the main job always has the priority, the Second and third jobs must preferably be contract gigs with not too many meetings everyday. Remember: another day, another dollar.
