Hi Everyone,

I interviewed with Infosys Consulting and their were 2 rounds. Post the same, I got a mail from HR stating that I have cleared those and asked me to share documents and fill one form with academic details and expectations.

It has been almost 40 days since I submitted those but HR hasn't called me. Gave them couple of polite reminders over email to which they reply everytime that they'll get back to me next week, however to no avail.

Can you all pls guide on how to proceed. Thanks

What are reasons you would stop giving work to a newly minted second year associate? Stuck because people have never given me bad feedback but also don’t give me work. Transactional.

For those that went to MBB from S& manager, how are the responsibilities and expectations different at MBB Vs S& at the manager level?

I’m starting at MBB shortly as an associate, laterally from Big 4. Husband & I are trying to decide if we want to buy a house and settle in the city we’re moving to - I am potentially interested in making partner (if possible) but also open if a good exit opportunity comes my way. Exit opps would certainly be in a different location. Anyone have thoughts on ideal length to stay at MBB?

How hard is the work at MBB, coming from a big4 will you struggle? Anyone else have imposter syndrome?

Bainies: is there any significant downside to not including a cover letter on an application for AC? It isn’t mandatory for the app

Human Capital consultant here applying to MBB. On the chance I don’t get an offer this round, out of the Big 4 which should I target and which practice within each firm should I apply to gain the skill set needed to enter into MBB?

Can someone please explain how McKinsey’s BA -> EM works? Seems to be a general lack of info on this topic
What percentage of folks get it?
How does the role compare to PL/SM at BB?(I find it insane someone can do the same work only 2-3 years out of undergrad)
What is the comp for a BA EM vs post mba EM?
Also skipping to EM sounds insane for getting to partner faster (assume it’s very very rare??)

Has McKinsey or your firm ever audited you for expenses? How did the process go?

What if during the interview you get a case which you really just have no idea how to set up the math and freeze during the quantitative portion? What would you do at that point? It’s game over right? 😔

Best MBB for life sciences?

Any harm in spamming referrals? I keep getting asked for them and for a few I feel like they're not prime candidates - but they're friends/ex-colleagues so don't want to turn them down.

Any chance of things blowing back?
