What is Bain’s I&D group like?
Anyone with recent experience recruiting for Boston Consulting Group? Got in touch with a recruiter through referral, was directed to submit an application and already finished my pymetrics. Anyone know when I would be able to hear back and what the hiring timeline looks like? Recruiter suggested to get back in a few weeks but isn’t it too slow? McKinsey sent me an invite for 1st interview in a few days after they received my referral.

For me it was finding an opportunity that provided the same exposure/level of impact (i.e., C-suite) but with more control over the day to day and when I had to travel.
The only place that checked that box for me was ghSMART. I left Bain ~7 years ago to join and am now a Partner at ghSMART. We're a boutique Leadership Advisory firm which helps CEOs and Boards build out winning leadership teams. It's fully remote, has a variable comp plan based on how much you want to deliver, and is built on the concept of freedom and flexibility.
My recommendation to executives looking to make a move is always to create their next role scorecard to help them evaluate opportunities as they arise, setting aside compensation for a moment. What is the mission for your ideal role? What are the 5-7 actual outcomes you'd be delivering (what scale/by when?). And what actual competencies would you need to bring to bear to make it happen.
