Prior MBB experience is not a requirement to qualify for a job at Google.

Based on how you phrased your question, I assume English is your 2nd language (like for many of us). I recommend you have someone review your resume to ensure it’s written cohesively and grammar is on point. Remember to quantify impact with metrics.

Not necessarily. I'm sure you can get valuable experience at McKinsey or BCG, but a lot of Deloitte folks join Google directly as well. As long as you have the relevant skill set and experience for a particular role, you should be good to apply.

Honestly worked with ex Mck folks at G that were really bad. Doesn't always translate.
