I am a graduating senior with consulting internship experience at BCG & Bain (not USA), strong GPA at target school. Got my Bain interview earlier this September but didn't make it, and currently waiting for EYP and Deloitte interview initiations. It seems like I didn't make it to the interview and I'm in shock...Any help or advice will be much appreciated.

Long post alert; I have been interviewing with a b4 for a senior con role since Mar end. Cleared all the rounds including case study and got strong rating as well as good feedback. Fast forward to last week, the talent POC calls me up and informs that she has asked the business if the position is still open, because now they just need the business approval to roll out the offer. I immediately felt demotivated as to ‘why now’ after all rounds have been cleared (continued in the comment below)

Hi,
Which is a better division at JPMC india mumbai office,
CIB or Global CRM Asset Management

Having wife’s birthday soon after the Black Friday is a real blessing.

Has anyone used Productboard with Jira? I’m specifically looking to understand how you manage epics within the Jira backlog. Currently our backlog contains the child issues for each epic

What would be the CTC for technical lead role?
They are giving 15 percent variable as well.

Will I get 100 percent variable on quarterly basis or not?
What's you experience with Infy?

Ratings on three projects - 3,2,2. Utilization - 90%... Proposal hours - 15... Firm activities - 43 hrs... I then get a YE rating of 4 😕 ... How worried I should be regarding the layoffs???

Been reading some posts and it sounds like everyone dislikes DDV. Why is that? What are the genuine reasons?

Anyone around who I can vent to?

How many billable hours per week is considered at capacity? I’m getting pushback on boundaries I’m setting about additional matters and marketing work from my firm when I’ve been billing 60-75 hours per week for the last 6 weeks, and I’m still behind on my work. I feel like it’s reasonable to not kill myself further to fit in more/turn things around faster at this point, but am I being unreasonable? I expect my workload to remain at this level through the end of the year at least.

Can anyone provide referral for UBS ?

Does anyone know anybody coming from the Merit America IT Support program that have been successful in their roles? This is a career change for me and I'm worried that employers won't be patient while I learn or that IT teams will be overloaded and I won't have a proper mentor.

I went from meeting HR to the head of my department I’d be working for in 3 days. This seems fast. Does it to anyone else? It’s a super fast growing fin tech. I think they may just need bodies.

Just took the assessment for a Solutions Architect role and I’m getting scheduled for a presentation. Does anyone have any insights as to what to expect? All pointers and suggestions are welcome and appreciated.

What is the responsibility of an OB hospitalist to advocate for or against sterilization (specifically tubal litigation) if any? I had a very controversial experience with an OB that made me wonder how much we should be trying to influence our patients' decisions "in their best interest." ETA: I'll share more details once I see some responses. I don't want to cloud anyone's gut-reaction opinion.

I get along with people up to the senior manager level, half the directors, and very few of the partners.

Why are partners usually the hardest to deal with / interact with?

How long will I last in this industry?

Flew for the 3rd time since last March. I LOVE how all these consultants (and yes you can tell they are consultants) board the plane early with status. Who really wants to be on the plane longer than they need to be during Covid? I will board last thank you very much. Status be damned.

Had this question pop up a lot recently - discussed here many times before, but want to see if we can quantify the discussion a bit. Let’s assume the vaccine is at 70% shots in arms by 4th of July (‘21), and 80-85% by Labor Day. In 2022, are we back to 3/4/5, or do you think parts of the remote culture will stick going forward?

Looking for non- fiction book recommendations. I just read Shoe Dog and loved it.

Anyone suffering from fibromyalgia & chronic fatigue syndrome? How are you able to sustain the difficult and intense hours at consulting plus personals lives ? Do you talk to your manager / director about it and set expectations w them & the team? I have been recently diagnosed and wondering how others with this condition in consulting get by ?

Anyone here from Strategy&? What are your thoughts about the company? WLB, Salary, Projects, etc.? How it compares with Accenture S&C and Big4 Consulting?

Any Freemasons lurking around here!? Thinking about making a Bowl for my Traveling Brothers. Maybe to talk about how we view this unique Labor (consulting) in a Masonic context, post some inspirational messages, recommend good books, idk stuff like that...

Home sweet Westin

Finally getting a chance to put together a home office space. Looking for tips, photos, ideas. I have two monitors and a laptop so my do a three screen set-up. Debating about getting a standing desk or putting money in a super comfy leather chair. Open to hearing what you have done!

One of the reasons I want to transition from industry to consulting (tier 1) is that I get frustrated when I have to collaborate with mediocre people. My assumption is that Tier 1 consulting firms hire really sharp people and if I can get in, I’ll be collaborating with folks on top of their game (not expecting much from clients). I’m aware there are personal aspects I need to work on like my mindset, patience etc etc, but I just get so frustrated with blatant stupidity.

For McKinsey PEI (power round), should my stories be around 5-6 minutes containing a good level of detail, or really generic (~2 minutes) and just let the interviewers ask me questions on what they feel are most important to them? I’m really eager to present the details because I think these are elements that can show my fit with the company well, but am hearing some people say that >2 mins people get lost. But some details are important to provide background (industry specific)…

Describe the best partnership you have had at work? Did it happen by chance or choice? What made the person the best partner? What did you achieve? Is it recent or years ago?

To the moon…Oh I mean back to earth. Sigh 😞

Best / Biggest Happy Hour City in the US?

I know Mck is the top for strategy, but in terms of digital/design in top consulting firms which do you think is better? Mckinsey digital or deloitte digital? (Or another..?)
