Hi all,

I recently decided to explore lateraling to Bain as a current McK BA. It’s a bit of a quick turnaround (due to unforeseen personal circumstances) but I’d really appreciate any pointers or advice on the process (or a potential referral). Happy to share more about my background if helpful. Thanks so much!

So my friend (who I’ve been with in the past but it didn’t work) is getting married this June. I’m still in love with her and will probably cry uncontrollably (or at least make a shitty face) when it’s done, but I will be a best man at the wedding.
