McKinsey & Company Has any industry experienced candidates pivot to MBB Engagement Manager before? My roommate works at FAANG as Senior Analyst (Ops, 6+ YOE) and was approached by McKinsey & Company recruiter for an EM role. He hasn’t done consulting before. Would this be too much of a risk? His goal is to pivot to PE S&O eventually.

On resume, I’d leave the Build title bc assuming you get an offer when their HR calls Build’s HR to confirm employment dates & title that’ll match up. The rest of the resume should speak to the role you’re pursuing. If the job is a manager your accomplishments should speak team development, hitting schedules & budgets, etc. If it’s a technical role, your accomplishments speak to that. Anyone that’s been around tech knows there’s a culture of made up job titles for over 20 years.
It's very common for titles at one company not to translate at another. Depending on where you're looking to move next, you could get away with Asst. Director or similar. It's important to make sure you're setting yourself up for success in your job search which means using titles that are standard in your industry or field.
If you end up at a company that does a detailed employment history check, they will likely use a service to conduct that for them. With those, you're also usually inputting the details yourself. It's been a long time since I've seen companies care about the perfect title match from resume to employment verification results.
Remember that recruiters and hiring managers are only spending ~30 seconds reviewing your resume so you want them to quickly see that you match their ideal profile. And any decent recruiter would understand why you adjusted your title on your resume - if it even comes to that.
Titles are all made up anyway. List your actual title, and then summarize your responsibilities as that title.
