Do you often partner with other freelance creatives? I'm slowly building a roster of freelancers in different disciplines to pass on some of my private practice work.
Here's why:
1. Increases my capacity and shortens my turnaround time.
2. Other freelancers are usually experts in the area that I don't want to actively work on myself
3. I get to specialist on the parts of the project I like most and lead the creative direction for the rest.
4. Get to create great relationships with other talents

Spent 3 years in consulting and ready to move on. Threw an app out to Georgetown and got in with pretty minimal effort. It seems like a prestigious school plus the DC network is pretty key to my interest in Public Sector work. The thing is I didn’t really put as much effort into the b school apps as I could have and reused an old GRE score from around 3 years ago rather than study and retake it. Should I maybe hold off a year and apply to a slightly higher ranking school?

Compliance doesn’t interest me like it used to and Partnership tax experience alone really limits exit opportunities.

Do you guys at BCG think it would be a smart decision to make a lateral move to PL from Big 4? Have great network and support at current company. The MBB brand, 20k increase in TC, and potential better exit opportunities would be reasons to move. Worried about the challenges of starting from scratch at BCG, proving myself as IC in first few projects, and probably a worse WLB. Would love any insights TIA!
