Not sure what this role is in terms of YOE. But I would say general rule of thumb:
- 1-3YOE - you apply to BA (you can try Asc but very unlikely)
- 3-5YOE - you apply to JA/Arc
- very rare to join directly as EM

Very unlikely imo

For BCG, the A/C application is generic - the process is the same and they’ll level you on their end, based on your relevant years of experience.

If you only have 1 year, you’ll likely come in as an Associate (i.e., entry level).

Yeah - I’ve seen people get no tenure for 3 yrs of consulting work post undergrad before. But honestly - the bar is pretty high at MBB and coming in at a more senior level could be a disservice to you

Hi All,

Kindly help me in resolving the dilemma

MBA with Total YOE - 7+, relevant YOE- 5.3 , Skills - CYBERSECURITY,GRC, Audit.

I have got two offers
1. Genpact - 27 CTC (24 fixed + 10% variable plus gratuity) Manager level
2. Airbus - 23 CTC + 5 L JB
I really wanted to work with Airbus but they are not budging from the offer of 23 even after I told them I have a better offer from Genpact with better position. HR said they will come back..

You think Airbus will come back with better offer?
