From 10 rejections to 1 dream investment banking internship
“... I believe it was the single biggest reason why I ended up with an offer...”
BCG gives you some your first week and throughout the internship. There's no store, just ask local HR, and they probably have some stuff lying around to give you.
I heard at McKinsey though they actively discourage you from wearing or carrying anything identifying though lmfao.
can confirm mck doesnt. Tho this year could be diff bc centennial they are doing some merch but idk if its branded havent gotten yet
also lowkey dont wear mbb merch pls lol
Can confirm that McKinsey actively avoids putting the name on anything (the only place I've ever seen it is on a regional office mug). Even the 100th year anniversary quarter zips just have "100" on them.
Trying to buy merch off HR should be a fireable offence
BCG will give you a ton of merch - don't need to pay for anything yourself. When joining they give umbrellas, wireless chargers, water bottles, pens, notebooks etc. Then often misc merch available when Practice Areas have fairs/socials, and you can even get clothing from some Practice Areas doing collabs e.g. with TNF
Can confirm this - started a few months ago and have a good amount of BCG merch lol. I use the stationery but I'm not carrying a backpack with "BCG" embroidered out and about
Any knowledge of Bain?
