Ultimately all MBB tries to assess is your data proficiency, teaming ability, and client readiness — but maybe to a higher standard than most. As long as you can prove those points you should be in a good spot!

Sure - I’ve got 5+ colleagues who’ve been exiting from Strat and even MC into MBB

like

Just got an offer at one MBB and have interviews at the others. My experience at ACN has not been in any of the areas you mentioned. Just do well on the cases and have relevant experiences to talk about for fit.

like

Do it! In the process as we speak from ACN Strat to MBB, lateral move at level with huge pay jump

You see many people so it from MC?

Made the same jump. Never looked back.

I’ve seen people do it. ACN Consultant -> Analyst

Management consulting?

Would it be correct to say that one must try to be staffed mostly on ZBx, cost cutting, target operating model, pricing projects to get a relevant experience to move to « proper » strategy consulting?

like

Nope. I don’t think they’re defining “proper” strategy consulting the way you are. I don’t think of ZB as that strategic, honestly. It gets very repetitive after the initial target area identification

like

So from the gathered answers, it’s more about form than content that the emphasis is put on when you want to do that kind of transition.

Also doing MBA part time at a T15 school. Thinking about switching to IB but I’ve done my research and I think I would burn out of IB in two years but I might be ok with that for the opportunities after.
