Does MBB ever start experienced associates at a level between undergrad and post MBA? Two years of experience at LEK, so not quite qualified for the post MBA role, but also don't want to start over at entry level

Yes — at BCG US, you might potentially start at A2 or SA (and SA is not part of the standard progression in the US though it is in some other geos, it’s specifically used only for this circumstance). Assume other MB have similar.

Very helpful, thanks!

Yes, but you don’t meet that with 2 years of work experience. You need 4+ years or advanced degree + work experience to meet Associate. Otherwise degree + 1-4 years experience is Business Analyst and it’s not referred to as “entry”. Check the careers website. The qualifications are there.

M1- but can you negotiate tenure at the BA level if you have relevant experience? Come in as a second year BA, for example

Yes, we can put you anywhere in the 3 year tenure it takes to go from undergrad to post MBA role.

Appreciate the response, thanks!

No, but your progression is usually accelerated. That being said, it’s still a factor of performance and not just by virtue of your having been an experienced hire

Yes, they hire into all positions. Be prepared to start as AC, especially with 2YOE

It's been a challenging year for me, including a rejection from GSAP. This week, I got into my top choice MBA program - and an M7 to boot! Just goes to show that sometimes Deloitte's decisions can be misaligned to the greater world.
I hope that Deloitte gives me the chance to be a good brand ambassador - but at the point, it's up to the firm if I even consider coming back :)

I’m an Environmental Protection Specialist and make pretty good money for what I do. I just feel like I have more to offer than being a worker bee in a system at 25. I work with a lot of retirees and would love to return in my latter professional years. I have my Bachelors in Applied Coastal Environmental Science and want to expand my options. Any suggestions that won’t require me taking a crazy pay cut? I’m pretty much open to anything.
