Bain & Company For all the MBB folks out there, is there an optimal time to apply as an experienced hire? I know hiring can be slow once new campus hires join and onboard since there are a lot of people waiting to be staffed on projects. Outside of that time frame, are there any others that are typically less advantageous? Would be applying to entry level positions if that matters. Thanks in advance!

PwC A recruiter from PWC reached out to me to ask if I’d consider a different office the one I applied to, since it’s full. It would be Boston, Hartford, Chicago, Minneapolis, Little Rock, Denver, San Francisco or San Jose. MSA candidate. Is there a fully remote option? Do you have to be in the office all the time? Is the compensation high at PWC? Is there a possible moving expenses? Any insight or advice would help me make a decision. Thank you!

You've honestly pretty much nailed the cycle. There's also a bit of a slowdown around the major holidays at the end of the year, for obvious reasons. And many firms are slow to restart in the new year after that. Otherwise, avoid the new campus hire wave and you should be fine.
Gotcha, thanks SA1!
Coming from a non-target also adds additional nuances. Feel free to DM me?
M1, student accounts don’t have access to the DM feature. Is there another way to reach you?
Not that i know of, if you want to post your LinkedIn/email or something go for it and I’ll connect.
Alternatively GCC (gamecock consulting club) will have some of the answers your looking for and able to connect you with some MBB alum assuming you get into the org.
