McKinsey 🐠, how does career progression look from BA to Associate in the first 3-4 years? Applied to a BA role and am starting the interview process. Currently in line to hit consultant at ACN this year, wondering if I would come over as a first year BA or if there are levels in between such as senior BA or Junior associate I should try and slot into

If US there is no BA to associate. It is direct to EM after 2-4 years. There’s a Senior BA title but that’s a formality
