Experienced SM (over 4 years) applying to AlixPartners they started the process at SVP and recruiter mentioned that our SVPs are usually with 15-20 years. I checked online it seems M are SVPs and SMs translate to director. Can A&P fish opine? Do they typically bring you one level down?

Just not true that SVPs are 15-20 years of experience. It is more like 8-12

Depends on relevance of experience

Depending your current firm and which group you’re apply to (e.g., EI, TRS). Some big 4 SMs come in as SVP, some as Director. It really depends on your experience and area of expertise. 15-20 years is definitely not true.

This will largely depend on how relevant your experience is. While you’ll find internal promotes can be a bit younger, experienced hires (specially at SVP and Director levels) are typically really senior.

Im not surprised they’d bring you in at SVP, what firm are you currently at?

Context: SVP with 6 yrs pre-MBA and 3 yrs post-MBA.

Well what I wanted to ask was does it make sense to bring this up now or wait until I go through the process - who knows may not even get it... given wunderlic lol

One more point - we don’t take pleasure in lowballing people in terms of comp or levelling. It is not our people strategy, but it also doesn’t make sense. If someone can perform at a higher level, why not allow them to do it? We pride ourselves (and our selling point) is our senior model - the only valid and real reason you’re being reviewed as a SVP is because we don’t think you’ll be successful as a Director immediately. You can prove our initial assessment wrong during your interviews, and we’ll be happy to adjust that assessment.

I’m not HR, I swear. I’ve just been interviewing a long time.

AP digital. All my experience has been in Tech digital and CIO strategy

OP. What is your expected salary. I heard svp makes between 180-220k base and director 230-250

SVP here, 50-60% for my level is common. Keep in mind the base of a sample of SVPs will vary depending on when they were hired.

I also asked the recruiter give me some idea of base so I know a bit if we are on same page ...the recruiter goes it all depends on level you come in at

Have you had TC discussions with the recruiter yet? That was in my initial discussion with HR.
