Hello there,
I graduated from college in 2013. I have been for the last 2 years working for an internal consulting group at a BB. I feel I have learned as much as I could from my current role and wanted to pursue opportunities in Management Consulting. Based on discussions on this forum, I take it it is virtually impossible to land an Associate role at an MBB laterally without an MBA.
I wanted to target Deloitte S&O since I worked with their consultants for a few months in my current team and found them/ their work to be pretty impressive.
My questions are as follows:
1) Any advise as to how I should try to reach out to people from S&O. Should I try messaging recruiters on LinkedIn or try to find a contacts who can forward my resume?
2) Any thoughts on the typical kind of projects S&O works on in the Financial Industry space?
3) Which other non-MBB firms hire associates laterally?
Thanks.
There is an upcoming PwC advisory networking event for experienced hires in the upcoming month, talk to a friend at PwC for the deets.
Does Deloitte allow lateral hires?
Yes, I lateraled into Deloitte S&O. Doing the same stuff at another Big 4
Yes Deloitte allows lateral hires. If by Associate role you mean MBA level (so Senior Consultant) for Deloitte, you're going to be disappointed. Your best case scenario with 2 years experience is consultant, and you'll likely be offered an analyst role, perhaps with higher pay an entry level.
