Hi All,

I’m new to this bowl. My experience is in accounting but I’m looking to transition to defense sector consulting. My undergrad degree is in criminal justice and then went the business route for grad. I’m looking to get back to my roots. Does anyone here have experience in weighing Georgetown’s SSP program (or similar) versus an MBA?

TIA!

I'm planning to do my PGDM in Canada
Which College/Universities should I consider to get recruited into top consulting firms (Also the preferred courses) ?

Only just realized that we don’t get admission decisions until a set date for most schools. 3 month wait for Yale/Tuck is going to kill me

Is getting a Job opportunity in US/UK with visa sponsorship possible without having any overseas experience? I have 3 YOE in recruitment, recruitment operations and HR operations. l also completed MBA from Pune India.

Thinking about pursuing a part-time MBA in fall 2021. Does Big 4 or MBB do full-time recruiting for part-time students in general (I know schools have their own policies)? Has anyone been able to laterally transfer as a part-time MBA grad?

What type of wellness benefits (outside of insurance) does your school offer?

Anyone currently enrolled or will be enrolled in the online masters cyber degree at Georgia Tech?

Working on some law firm applications tonight and it sucks that I know that I am so capable and have a strong work ethic but firms can’t see beyond grades or the fact that I didn’t go to a t14 law school or prestigious undergrad. I’ve worked twice as hard and feel like I’ve barely even gotten half as much. It’s discouraging sometimes especially because I worked so hard with pretty much no guidance (first gen, poc, low-income) to get into college and do well and then get into a t30 law school

Your degree doesn't belong next to your name unless it's a doctorate. I roll my eyes every time I see John Smith, MBA. What even is the point?

Hi partners, do you have an MBA? What are your thoughts about getting an MBA for someone who already works in consulting? Thank you :)

Is it worth it to go back to school for a better track to a FAANG company? The division I’m currently in seems like there are no good opportunities, and I have the funds available to finish my undergraduate full time (Canada). I applied to Amazon before for a highly senior position and made it to final interview so I think I would have a better chance for a new grad type role.

MBA folks, what prep material did you use to prep for consulting interviews? School resources or case in point?
