It depends. If it’s a target school there is a target school recruiting team with lots of consultants almost always from that school. They’ll do the reviews for that particular target school.

Basically same process for Bain for targets and semi-targets (for North America undergrad), although the alumni team gets the full list to process (not a shorter list created by recruiting). Then there’s a non-core team made up of folks from a variety of schools to handle non-core applications, as well as for schools in North America Core (elite schools) recruiting in offices without a ton of local alums (someone from Harvard recruiting for Texas, for instance).

Experienced hiring (sans MBA) is relatively rare at Bain, but it runs through the school team associated with the candidate’s undergrad.

This is a thing? I thought HR reviewed everything

I have 15 YOE all in health IT consulting in T2, mostly running large technology implementations for providers. I’m tired of the consulting grind and am contemplating going to industry. The easy path of an IT exec position with a typical client of mine (large health systems) does not appeal to me. I find the idea of going to more innovative companies (big tech, health tech startups, provider or payer disrupters) more appealing.

Any data points, thoughts, advice on how to exit?

Question about job performance

I have been in this position for about 8 months now. There are a few duties that I am still lacking skills in and have been told numerous times to familiarize myself with and I feel that my coworkers are constantly annoyed with how slowly I am picking up on this. While I am getting better than when I started, I was curious about if or whether or not this will cause my termination.

At a bit of a crossroad in my career. Currently an S2 in audit. I have an offer for tech strategy & analytics consulting at a boutique consulting company, and an opportunity to move into FDD at deloitte. I am worried about limiting my exit ops by going to a boutique company. Thoughts?
