BCG - freelance to fulltime? Dubai

Hi guys,

After two years in an MBB (well, McK/Bain) I was invited to leave as my office is struggling on finding new projects because of Covid-19. Thus, I wont be making to manager.

A recruiter from Dubai invited me to do a gig for BCG. The gig would be a 6-week DD.

I was wondering how common/feasible it is to convert a freelance gig into a fulltime role. Personally I wouldnt mind spending a few years in BCG Dubai, but honestly I'm only accepting the role if this movement (freelance -> FT) is doable. The recruiter told me I should definetly let BCG knows about my plans, but am not sure how feasible it is.

Thanks!
