Honest assessment: If I am one of the McK APs taking “the package”, how likely are the other MBBs to consider me for opportunities especially if I have very specialized skills they are seeking?

Depends if demand for your particular skills is high for the other MBBs, although I suspect if it’s low at McK this might also be an industry wide challenge.

Doesn’t hurt to try - good luck!

Doesn’t hurt to try I suppose

I think you will be considered strictly on the merit of your expertise and the needs of the system you apply. Cultural fit will be assessed, but we have many Bain or McK alumni doing well and we know it’s a great pool of talents who know the job. Also totally ok to say that you took the package, which frankly can make sense.
