For MBB interns who finish their summer internships and receive return offers, can they directly transition to FT? Or do they need to wait for some period of time

Internships with McK are nearly always one year before graduating MBA, undergrad, or advanced degree program. I’ve never heard of any direct starts. Fastest I’ve heard was ~7months for a PhD who defended earlier than planned.

@McK2, I’m not asking if I can start directly
(In < 1 month) as BA right after I graduate. I’m asking if I could start within 1-3 months after graduating in December. Also, I didn’t know it isn’t advisable to start off-cycle

In Europe it can range from 0 months if the intern did a gap year, but then decides to postpone his/ her master to 5 years for an intern who first wants to finish his PhD. I have seen all these cases.
