Although you could get into M7 from Deloitte directly, I feel the post MBA exit opportunities for a BCG —> MBA candidate would be better. So I’d say it depends on what you want to do after MBA.

Personally I would go BCG. Even if I wanted a regular post mba exit, I think forever having MBB + M7 on your resume and in your network has long term benefits

Hello Fishes,
I got an opportunity from NTT Data BPO.
I am currently being hired for nightshift. Are there any chances for getting day shift or mid shift?
Or are there any chances to get a change in shift after getting on boarded?
Will it be okay to discuss this with HR?
Because during interview I said yes to Night Shifts.

Over the last couple of months I’ve interviewed for a number of jobs and made it to second and third round interviews but never got an offer. My last interview was on Monday and I got feedback that I did not get selected because it did not seem like I was a a team player. Ive got three interviews coming up and l am wondering how I can improve my chances of getting an offer. Any ideas are welcome. I need a new job like yesterday.
