I keep trying to recruit at non targets. Nice, cheap, grateful! Can't beat that for quality talent.
Your most important consideration should be succeeding. I assure you that when I (as a managing partner) see MBA I want that person to prove why their MBA won’t guide their behavior not that it will. MBAs by definition need a stable income to pay loans and in most cases they all excel at advice and talk talk talk. I look for (in this order, as do my c-suite clients) hunger and drive, intelligence, curiosity, a desire to create the new and break existing models and then where you happened to be educated (which was mostly studying old case studies). Network cannot be underrated for a great school or MBA but that old golf course approach will die quickly in today’s environment that we and our clients face. Work hard, be smart, be assertive, you will rise. Period.
Non target, yes. No debt, I wish.
A wise man once said if you cling to the school you went to, then you haven’t accomplished much since you left.

I went to a target school, have no debt, and made Partner - trifecta!
👊 😎
I did have to go through PwC’s shitty delivery center and garbage salary at first though.
@CA1 if they ever let me I'll let you know! I came in the old fashioned way for a non target - years in industry and pathological harassment of unsuspecting recruiters.
👋🏼
I went to night school to get my degrees. People may shit on me but i have money in the bank and more experience than my peers. And I’m grateful for my salary and any bonus.
Non target. No school debt. Partner
Non target, zero debt. Attended online while working.
I was one of the few. You should have seen the pissed off looks when I got a 2 my first year and the top 10 dudes got 3s lol
🙋🏻 Full ride to a "nontarget" school. No debt, and doing pretty damn well in consulting.
IDGAF about target or non-target. I only care that I have zero debt. 100% of my paycheck after tax every month is for me to play with and boy does it feel great!
I have a GED and being promoted from M to SM in two years. The US school system is a joke.
I’ve been consulting for 15 years and honestly had never heard of MBB or target schools before I joined FB - if I had then maybe I wouldn’t have had the confidence to apply to Deloitte. I came in as an experienced hire of 10 years from technology consulting and Deloitte recognized my value and gave me the salary I wanted. As an immigrant I always tell my family and friends back home that Deloitte is somewhere that values hard work, passion, and pride in our work and that is enough motivation for me. We all have different experiences that brought us to this work and that is what I celebrate.
Have a great week my fellow road warriors and go-getters.
Meeee full academic scholarship 🎓🤓
Non target followed by the army. No debt
