I am looking to lateral to McK from a Tier 2 at the associate level (1 year post MBA). I have friends from B School (T10) willing to give a referral. Should I apply now or wait until on-campus recruiting has wrapped up? Trying to understand what will give me the best chances of being “seen” by the recruiters. For additional context, I am looking for a Q1 2022 start (or Q2 if it made sense). Thanks in advance.

Aren’t there separate recruiting teams for campus hiring vs experienced hiring ?

Doesn’t matter. Different recruiting team handles EP hiring.

Just apply. Even the referral is a nice to have right now.

Get the referral. Now is a good time to start the process for Q1 start date

Same boat as you regarding timing post MBA and switching - I interviewed and got the offer in the midst of campus hiring season. Once you have the referral- it should be straightforward.

Just messaged you :)

I started working for a new law firm, much larger than the firm I was working for previously. The main attorney that I work under had noticed some mistakes I was making (I am a NY paralegal who took this position with the understanding that they’d be teaching me NJ and NYC real estate). Anyways, the attorney decided to tell the HR manager about the mistakes I had been making. Rather than HR discussing with me, the manager told my dramatic coworker to tell me..how should I handle this? Very hurt!

It’s hard to trust the partners/leadership when they want us to return to office as being better when we increase offshoring? Also, the pressure on billable hours when all that really matters is how much our fixed labor costs vs. how much we can bill (which is usually fixed fee or at least a range) and the fixed labor costs of offshoring is significantly cheaper so the hours don’t matter. Am I mistaken by this viewpoint?
