What kind of coach? Job search? Career? Leadership? There are tons of different types of coaches

Super helpful indeed! Thanks for sharing your experience.

In Europe, Headhunters often specialize in helping you through recruitment processes. There are a bunch that specialize in ex consultants.

Have been in touch with those, but haven’t applied for a role

Sorry, I’m in Germany

Hi all- My SO is currently at a Big4 & was initially preparing for S&O roles at GCP but given the high number of ex MBB consultants hired, they believe its just more competition to get the offer & to eventually get promoted over time.

Instead, they have decided to pursue program manager or cloud consultant roles, which they feel might have a lower barrier to entry from an assessment standpoint. Not sure if the bowl agrees but would like to get your thoughts, thanks!

Is it possible to apply straight (rather than moving laterally in London, waiting a few years then transferring?) interested in MBB views too. (I would have roughly 2.5 YOE by then)

I am hearing that MBB is pausing majority of the interviews - should I be worried about my offer getting rescinded? I luckily got my offer a few months ago and received my signing bonus already.
