Hello! I’m really keen in getting into consulting, but not certain what role to apply to in MBB + Kearney (i.e associate vs business analyst at McKinsey). A bit of background info: Recently joined a large automotive firm in the UK as a data analyst (graduate program). Prior to that I pursued my masters degree in accounting and finance - and prior to that approx 3 years of work experience. Any tips/advice would be greatly appreciated! McKinsey & Company Bain & Company Boston Consulting Group

Sounds like SBA at Kearney, but could be associate. Same advice McK said though; recruitment can tell you which level.

You could also come in as SBA and make a quick jump upward, vs. coming in as associate and having a tough time might not be as fun

Totally confirm K1

Hi, someone like you should definitely be considered at least a Senior Business Analyst, at least speaking in terms of Kearney nomenclature. Got a similar profile doing the same in Delta Partners

Solid - thanks for clarifying SC1, much appreciated

Talk to a recruiter. Tell them you want to apply for an ASC role. They’ll tell you whether is ASC or BA

For Kearney we will slot you into where the recruiter thinks you will fit well, and then after round 1 interviews we review if that was correct or if we need to adjust up/down a level

Glad to hear that - many thanks, friend!

Hey team! So I was laid off from my SDR position about a week ago.

Also I’m sorry if this is the wrong bowl to post in.
