If I got invited to a Bain Experienced Hire coffee chat, will I automatically get a R1 interview? Or do I have to clear a certain bar to receive an interview invite?

Practically zero relationship between the two things

Based on your qualifications?

I think if you strike a good impression in the coffee chat, your chances of a getting a call marginally increase. Go prepped with an agenda / pitch, ask good questions, listen and respond, show your personality.

been in industry (small companies) for 5 years with an active CPA. Wanted to get in SEC reporting roles but almost every company requires 2-year public accounting exp. Now applying for public accounting firms entry level positions but almost all firms HR asked if I had ever worked in firms. Got rejection emails from firms all the time. Is this a dead lock? firms exp matters much more than a CPA license?

I'm currently working as an electrical designer in the MEP industry. I really don't like it and I'm working towards a career change which I'm actively applying for and getting certified etc. However, it's been a slow process and I'm currently underpaid where I am so would it be wise to make a lateral move to another MEP firm simply because they offer me more money while I still look for a different job separate from this field? Or just tough it out?
