I recently graduated from a top 10 MBA and i'm heading to a second tier consulting firm doing M&A consulting (reorg, restructuring). I've had no luck with banking during recruiting, but I'm still extremely interested in getting into IBD, how likely will M&A consulting help me getting into IBD later on? What steps should I take to have a good shot to eventually land an IBD job?






Interesting dilemma
You should go the boutique route. There are tons of great boutiques in almost every major city, so I highly recommend you start applying to as many of them as possible. You are looking for fit and some firm / boss that will see your potential and hire you because they believe in you. Good luck **)

Don't worry about it, and don't feel like you have to go to some no-name boutique. That's not a great career move.
I know someone who did M&A consulting pre b-school and is now at one of the top boutiques.

Is boutiques the only route I can take now
Is boutiques the only route I can take now? Sounds like I'll have no chance with any BBs?
