What do you think would look better for M7 MBA apps? Currently 1.5 years at EY TAS. Ultimately want MBB or FAANG BizOps:
1. Stay in EY TAS - promo to Sr -apply
2. Leave to Yelp biz ops analyst -apply

I think you’re right...

I’d go for biz ops at Yelp. With both consulting and tech bizops experience, your recruiting out of bschool will be significantly easier than with only EY under your belt. Some M7 schools might also not consider you if you’ve only worked for Big4.

Consulting + industry is better than consulting if: *you get a promotion in consulting
*the time spent in consulting is >2 years

Otherwise stay and get some cool projects under your belt at EY and kill the GMAT

Why is education deemed more valuable on a pay scale than experience? Employers will pay someone with a degree and no experience a greater salary, than someone who has exhibited the experience.
