Is it true that you get an interview at MBB regardless of your experience or a partner refers you? It's true for Deloitte at Lea.

It's never the first interview that gets you a seat though, it's the last

I agree but I feel that landing that first interview is extremely hard!
Then it's on you obviously

It's very uncommon for someone with a partner referral not to get at least a courtesy interview. Yes, there are situations were It's just a partner referring someone to do networking, but they usually let the HR know.

That being said, there were some cases where HR doesn't follow up to the interview. Keep in mind It's basically one of the owners telling you "this guy is good, do the interview". And an HR analyst saying "He is not good enough". Very very few times the Analyst will have the final word

I haven’t seen this to be true at McK. Seen many referrals just not pan out.

I currently work as an APM at a FAANG company but recently received an offer to join an MBB. I’m very excited about the role but didn’t realize I’d need to take a pay cut when I applied (~100k base + ~20k bonus + ~60k equity vs. 90k base + 10-20k bonus). Considering that I currently work 40-60 hours/week, I’ll be making significantly less per hour at the MBB. I’m very interested in the opportunity but also don’t want to make a poor financial decision early in my career. Thank you for your time!
