Great question. Interested in same. MBB consultant with 15 years of experience (5 post MBA). Would GMP from HBS help?

Would likely be a stimulating exercise and a great networking opportunity. I can’t imagine it would hurt. Would definitely be fun.

You’re right - mine cost $ 89 k at LBS so the economics were very different.

if you can get into LBS or judge yeah you can just take a year off and do it in one

No

Hello Fam Law attys!

I am in my second year as a attorney, I was a FL paralegal before law school and would eventually like to end up there again. I am in a very small rural area, pretty much only solos, and no FL solos appear to be hiring/expanding at this time.

Do you think experience as a DA or PD would be valuable, with my eye toward a future in FL? Both for the skills gained, and/or as a resume piece?

TY!

Desperately want to get into healthcare strategy consulting. 13 years of healthcare clinical experience including project work. MBA.

Just one rejection after another, even when applying with internal referrals from Director or Partner levels. What am I doing wrong?

I can really use some direction. My background, I've worked 2 years in strategy and am currently coming off an exhausting year 2 in investment banking.

Everybody says there's exit-ops aplenty, but I find myself with less options and even more picky than I did as an ambitious T2 undergrad student. Where do I go from here?
