A: I look 6'

What is your real height?

What is your height without shoes?
A: You don't need me to stand without shoes. And I will stand 6' tall with shoes. So why do you ask my real height?

We need to know how tall you are without shoes.
A: You need me to look 6' and I do.

How long does it take to hear back from applying to MBB through referrals?

Question for any external recruiters.

You placed me in my current role (and presumably were paid because of it). Can I reach out for a new role ?

I’m sending resumes out far and wide, ideally I’d be in a new role ASAP. I’m already starting to get requests for phone screenings so formal interviews will probably be on the way. The kicker is that my wife is 6 months pregnant and our first child is due next February, which is busy season the public accounting jobs I am applying to. I feel like requesting paternity leave or letting them know a baby is coming will make hiring me more difficult. How do I approach this, and when do I do it?

I’ve never done an interview like this before. Any tips?

Hi I am looking for a referral for associate/ consultant level roles at MBB.

Please reach out if you would be willing to provide one. Happy to catch up and discuss further.

Background:
MIT Grad with background in Financial Services Consulitng.

Have first rounds with Mck coming up and am fairly confident with all aspects of the interview except for the quantitative portion. My issue is moreso with going about how to solve the question rather than the actual calculations. Does anyone have any general resources or tips on how to practice this? I have been told going through GMAT problems could help as they are more business-centric. Will appreciate any and all advice - thank you!

MBB or a well paid position at a start up?

I'm one week in my first project and I already know it's not my cup of tea - how long do I have to stay on before it's acceptable / reasonable to roll off?

Resumé question - I’m wanting to portray myself as someone with the EQ to be able to relate to clients, even in situations that are less than positive. For example, we had a client project that was way off track, expectations were missed, and they were considering terminating the contract. I stepped in and calmed the waters, reset expectations, and turned the project around. Any tips on quantifying this in a results-oriented way on my resumé that MBB wants to see?

Have BCG final round interviews this Friday. 2 45 Minute sessions back to back (all the slots were set up this way). Do you usually get a minute or two in between the calls? I imagine I’m going to need a moment to recenter myself after the pressure of a case interview, maybe run to the bathroom.

Also any last minute advice is greatly appreciated :)
