I saw a consultant job posting from LEK. I have two years of strategy consulting experience (entry level) from Deloitte and am looking for lateral strategy move. Looking at the website, there is no minimum qualification so I’m curious whether I’d be a good fit/ qualified. I hold no mba but am planning to. How’s the culture at LEK and growth opportunity?

Typical progression from entry Associate to Consultant is 3-4 years, so 2 years at a Deloitte would put you in the middle of that (AC). As others have stated we rarely hire experienced ACs, so your best bet would be to lateral in as an experienced A, which has potential to reach AC in 1-1.5 years. It is unlikely that you’d be considered for Consultant, which is our post-MBA role and requires managing a full team.

Afaik, no. We usually specify when the listing is for experienced candidates, as those would start near-term (w/in next 3 months). Campus hires don’t start until next summer at the earliest.

Worked with LEK on a big project. Nice, smart people who place well into industry and top MBAs. Will say that they all tend to work pretty hard. 70+ hours is typical and often no travel on cases. Entry level analysts are GRINDING.

Pretty sure 2 YoE would put you at an AC role at LEK, though possibly still A depending on interview performance.

Don’t think LEK hires into AC? My experienced hire class had people with 1-2 YOE

Does a 20 year long career at Deloitte hold much value in the marketplace in light of the current economic situation? Started as a change leadership Consultant, but ultimately spent majority of my career in Resource Management and Global Mobility.

So, I just joined a startup. No processes, no clear strategy, just one goal: selling. Getting leads. When ever I try to build a strategy, they (founders) swamp me with blablabla stories and not a single action plan. Is this the usual at startups? Also,no real company culture. At all. No HR. I am reaaaally struggling to get a sense of belonging here. What should I expect?? Tia
