McKinsey & Company Is there an advantage to exiting MBB, spending a stint in industry, re-entering MBB etc? Noticed a few senior partners at McKinsey & Company who've done it, and not sure why, unless it leads to faster promos.
Related to this, do you need to re-interview or is there a separate alumni recruiting stream?

You are trying to see a career plan where it’s highly likely that none existed 😅 They got tired of consulting and went to industry. Then got bored of industry and boomeranged.

Interviews are required, unless the boomerang is immediate. Of course, there’ll be an existing network which makes getting that interview pretty easy.

Correct SA & P1, no questions asked you come back with no interviews or anything else. It's a risk free way to try something new with McK still there as a safety net

Comforting others:

Because I can’t guarantee that and I really don’t know if everything is going to be ok. I was taken aback recently when a friend told me I am calloused and cold-hearted for not being able to say those words. Is she right? Should I start saying this for the purposes of providing comfort only??
