What new role or you looking for?
Anyone with recent experience recruiting for Boston Consulting Group? Got in touch with a recruiter through referral, was directed to submit an application and already finished my pymetrics. Anyone know when I would be able to hear back and what the hiring timeline looks like? Recruiter suggested to get back in a few weeks but isn’t it too slow? McKinsey sent me an invite for 1st interview in a few days after they received my referral.

The first blunder to avoid is having an unexplained gap. Whatever you were doing for two years, be able to explain it in a positive way. One thing that's changed about the job search is there's more AI being used. Read up on that and chances are you'll see a lot of contradictory assertions. Just go by instinct when you submit applications and don't worry about second guessing an AI bot. Also, look into "Returnship" programs, I know Goldman Sachs has one as well as some other firms. That might be a good option for you.

I tried the headhunter approach and it cost thousands of dollars . Once I found that out I stopped trying . I’m back to searching on my own for free
In my experience, it’s a lot more difficult to find a job so just be ready for more rejection and realize it’s not personal
