This ain’t IB or consulting. If you have a decent gpa and an accounting degree you can land an audit job very easily at any B4

If you’re an experienced hire this should be a layup. If you act interested enough to the recruiter you will get the interview and as long as you don’t show up hammered or try to fight the interviewer you’ll get the job.

We hire anyone who is breathing and can put together a coherent thought at this point.

Most firms do new associate/ campus recruiting in the fall. With that said if you have a good GPA and qualified I would look at the firms website. Most have experienced recent turnover to where they are hiring through the normal process but it is late as the majority of campus spots have likely been filled.

In this market everyone is hiring in December

Would you lie to get an offer from dream company? Let’s say you did pretty good at interview, and the company (Google) is willing to give you an offer, but team lead at the end of interview asks you about GPA or experience on your resume, etc. Like in reality you got GPA 2.0, but u told them your GPA is 3.5 Would you take a risk and lie?

Hi there -
I applied to an experienced consultant position at Bain and just heard back. Yesterday, I received an invite to a HireVue one-way interview to complete. Today, I received an invite for a coffee chat with a consultant. I’m of course going to do both, but the emails make it seem like they are almost two separate paths/disconnected processes. Can anybody offer some insight into each of these/the process?
