Well I work here and I fail to understand what makes you so driven to want to prepare to work here after one year?

Start solving cases plus focus on preparing for soft parts of the interview like Pei which is basically an interview based on your personal experience to get a sense of who you are and how you fit in the firm’s culture. Get a view on timelines when do they start recruiting and make sure you have a solid resume, so that you get to the first round

coming from RU: make sure you network as well, more so for yourself to understand what you want out of a consulting career and what you might be getting yourself into. OCR at Rutgers may only tell you half the story.

I appreciate all the advice guys. I know I could’ve googled it but it’s better to hear it directly from the people who are in consulting

I’m trying to transfer departments at my company and I talked to the MD of the department i wanna transfer to, and told him working remotely is a requirement to me, and he said he’s not sure if that’s possible, and that would depend on HR and the hiring manager.

I messed up my interview with Millennium LLP for an entry level role and I feel nothing but dread right now. I believe it was my only opportunity at obtaining a high salary / profile job compared to my other options that only pay half as much. How can I accept the fact that I might not be able to start out as successful as I wanted to be? I believe it’s extremely difficult to jump between layers (E.G. Big 4 to MBB) later on in my career.
