How important is networking for consulting? Will having good work experience a 3.75+ double major from a top target be enough to get interviews? Or is it like banking where networking is key??

In my experience, if it's truly a top target and your experience is actually good for a top target school, then networking is probably not necessary. Can't hurt to make 1-2 calls per firm though just to be safe. You definitely don't need to do anything close to the level of networking for banking though, and firms will probably get annoyed if you do
