Hi, I have about 2.5 years of work experience in JP Morgan and an MBA in Finance from IIM Ranchi.
What are the chances of switching to a front-end role in private equity/M&A at the Consultant level? Also, an idea of the approximate salary would be helpful.
Thank you!

IIM ranchi is a tier 3 college and you won’t be considered for front end consulting in Bain. However you may find opportunity in BCN or support roles starting at ~10lpa
