Hi fishes,
Is MBA a prerequisite to get into MBB (McKinse, Bain, BCG). I'm a Chartered Accountant and currently working in a boutique strategy consultancy firm with good projects.
How should I build my profile to stand a chance in the top consultancy firms?
Any relevant skills/degree you could suggest?

At what point does the value of a degree fall off? I'm in my early 30s, and have five years of experience, and work on a very theoretically interesting project. I believe I'm on track to promotion in the next year. So, I could put in a year of full time school to check the box off, but I'd be sacrificing hobbies and social life (not to mention cost). Is this FOMO or is there real opportunity here?

Is this common at Google ? I have heard they are notorious for being really slow with their hiring process.
