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…)

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.

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.

Got it, none wished. Bet you'll be my boss soon right?
Am I too rich to understand this swill from OP?

🧐what?
This is the kind of humour I needed today
Lol. Thanks for the laughs.
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?

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.
