Just internally transferred from Big 4 to T2 (think EY>>EYP or PwC >>S&). Want to apply to MBB now. Do I leave T2 off of my resume? Or is there a way to mention it without being misleading (making MBB think I worked at T2 this whole time)? Would love to add T2 without being misleading

You should get some experience at the T2 before rushing to try to jump. You’ll be a stronger candidate in 6 months

If you can get a referral (try asking your colleague that jumped) I say go ahead and apply

I might be wrong, but at least in Brazil the strategy branch of big4 isn't considered T2.

But I'd put the promotion regardless, and when they ask, tell them it's been your goal since the beginning to work in the MC branch, and joined big4 so you could get the experience to join MBB.

Different country, different game, of course, but the consulting industry has changed a ton in the last 10 years e.g. Vault says differently than what you're saying

I don’t have enough experience at T2 to write bullets on my resume.

Still make sense to have two lines for dates and one section for experience?

Yes

If you see an open job posting at a company you want to work for, what steps do you take to apply? I’ve been told that cold applying and making no contacts is usually not going to lead to anything, and that’s been true in my experience. But should I reach out to someone first? Should i apply and then email someone? In HR? Or someone who’d be directly supervising me? Or someone at my level? And what should i say? Thanks!

Bain & Company Is it truly easier to get in a smaller MBB office?

Have heard a lot for different opinions on these. The logic is that it’s easier because there is a lot of supply in cities like NY, Chicago and SF, but the counter argument is that the offices with less supply are also way smaller and have a lot less demand.
