Reaching out via LinkedIn or Email

I’m hoping to lateral into MBB US with 6 months experience and am a little unsure about if I should go with LinkedIn or Email for cold reach outs / follow ups from panels I attended. I thought maybe email would be better for partners and LinkedIn for junior levels but would love to hear advice from y’all.

Doubt you’ll get a chance with 6 months. I’d wait for the 1 year mark honestly.

I guess that makes sense! What are some things/accomplishments you think I should work towards to improve my candidacy? I’ve been trying to ask for specific examples since I want to understand what I should be trying to do as a junior.

Email 100%

I’d wait til longer time passed and you have some value to offer or strong performances to talk abt.

As of you your story is basically: I have no exp but didn’t apply or was missed during undergrad recruiting.

Hi Fishes,

I gave my various rounds of interview in Deloitte USI 2 months ago, and since then till last Friday it was showing " interview in progress" on their job portal, HR said earlier that we are interviewing other candidates. I got an offer from Amazon last week and asked Deloitte recruiter to speed up the process, i didn't get any reply on my email but now it's showing " review in progress" on the job portal. What does it mean? Shall I wait for Deloitte offer or take Amazon's offer.

Inspired by one of my kids' favorite books, I penned this masterpiece of an Ode to Consulting:

Six managers show up with a guest
Seven senior consultants arrive in a sack
Eight associates sneak in the back
Nine analysts come to work
ALL THE CONSULTANTS GO BERSERK!!!
