What is the GPA “minimum” for an experienced hire applicant to MBB with ~2 YOE? I am confident my skills and experience are good fits, but self conscious about my GPA

Just leave it off your resume.

Yes. I got a referral and they asked me when I went to ‘apply’. Asked for grades and tests scores. I have 17yrs experience and an executive and they are asking me for that stuff. 🙄

What is your GPA? No judgement, but that will affect the answer.

Should I leave a 3.4-5 on or off?

Agree off

I never reported mine

How did you get by the application portal? I just had to put mine in. The damnable system wouldn’t let me move to the next section without putting it in

Only PE/HF deal side or IB will care at 2 YOE, so you are good especially now since so many people are leaving consulting to tech and pipeline from clients remain strong

Best of luck with the cases!!

What about a 3.6 gpa?

No one never saw mine and never asked, also.

Not NA, so don't know if it's different there.

I’m an SD II and my manager just put in his two weeks notice. My director ( my managers boss ) asked if I was interested in interviewing for the manager position.

Can anyone here give some basic insight bullet points on day to day as an area sales manager for a retail company? Or rather anyone interested in discussing their role ?

Well there’s been a lot of rejection in 2020, but I finally accepted a role at a new employer today. It may not be my “dream” but I believe my possibilities are endless and they are aware of my long-term career goals. Finally some good news after all the negatives the previous year has brought me.
