VP role at bank is pretty junior. For reference, I was a year away from VP when I left for business school. If I was manager level in consulting, I wouldn't leave for less than director.

Also industry vs consulting depends on where you are in life.

Everyone is a "VP". The jump from VP to MD is very, very heard.

VP at a bank=Associate consulting (at best)

False. That is true in investment banking. If you're going to an internal role it's like anywhere else in industry. Manager -> director -> vp -> svp

Internal roles follow the same format as front office banking roles. I did bs work in operations before bschool and we followed analyst - associate - vp - director - Md structure. Hell, even the IT people did. This was true at two different BB banks.

I have been approached by 3 separate HR people at a startup company to interview for a position. I already have a fulltime job that pays well and I only started 6 months ago too. Anyways, the pay was intriguing and the job was a high level scientific advisor so I did interviews. At the last interview, at the end I was told the job was for management but I prepared for a different kind of interview. I am waiting for an offer or rejection letter. I feel peeved that they wasted my time. Red flags?

Anyone knows the chances of location being changed after receiving the offer and getting tagged to a project?

I have not yet accepted the offer.
