I don't get these circuitous routes to exiting into a buy side role. You aren't the firT one. Just go directly to the buy side (VC in your case, but same goes for PE, HF).

If you want to go to VC, join a startup. It's quite straightforward. Don't do MBB, don't do Google. Or get in to a Stanford GSB.

Understood but Deloitte to VC/buy-side just doesn't happen. The only MBA programs that can make such a monumental shift doable are Harvard and Stanford. I'm not getting into Harvard/Stanford. So the next logical move is Google Biz Ops (for the Google branding), then exiting to VC. I was trying to gauge whether MBB would offer a better opportunity than Google

Why startup?

MBB to GBS to VC is a tried and true route. Although most of my friends in VC started at a BB bank.
