McKinsey & Company McKinsey & Company Hi everyone. Can I get a referral? US based. I work at a top consulting firm in its practice (think MBB, EY-P, Capco, Oliver Wyman, etc.). only interested in private equity work, but still want some flexibility — couldn’t break it in IB from my top public university (in southern california), so figured I will have to settle for consulting (as all of us here did…)

4 months YoE and already prepared for my interviews (read Case In Point and remembered my resume for PEI)

DM me.

If you have experience at Capco and a top Southern California public we can actually extend an offer at the Partner level without an interview.

Hi I have 15 years of exp with industry and 7 years in consulting. I have done data strategy, fraud investigation and a lot of CCAR, CFTC reporting. Can I DM you?

You mentioned so many “top”s. Unfortunately those “top”s do not guarantee anything. And don’t “settle for consulting”. I am afraid you won’t be happy and that can prevent you being a top performer.

As a fellow 7 months YOE analyst I’m better than OP cuz I have 3 more exp pls refer me.
I also couldn’t break into ib 😌😚🤪

funny

No worries if a BCG says pls fix I’ll fix

funny

A) what does 4 months YOE mean? Sounds like it means 4 months of experience. Which is basically...no expedience.

B) insulting literally everyone in the consulting bowl by saying we all "settled" for consulting is...really rude!

Good luck to you OP.

OP - you should find partner roles and just apply to those 😏

One of those companies is not like the others - are you trying to tell us you’ve been at capco for 4 months and want a referral so that you can settle for MBB?

smart

How to say you work for Capco without saying you work for Capco… I don’t think Capco is even on any ranking scale that includes the other names.

Can someone help me understand how backdoor Roth works in my situation?

I contribute the $19.5K max to a 401K each year. Would backdoor Roth be (A) the ability to roll $6K of that $19.5K into a Roth? or (B) an incremental $6K that I could contribute to a separate IRA then backdoor into a Roth?

Asked another way, does backdoor Roth allow me to actually contribute $25.5K each year, or does it just allow $6K of my $19.5K contribution to build in a Roth?

Thanks!
