Lateral IB Analyst to Consulting
Hi guys,
I'm currently a first year analyst in a BB. I got funneled into IBK pretty early in college and realized senior year it's not exactly what I'm looking for. I'm looking to lateral into management consulting either during or after my 2 year stint. How doable is this? Do consulting firms put any weight on IBK experience? Should I wait until the end of my analyst stint? I'd be open to starting as an analyst in consulting (which I most likely would right?), just think IB hasn't set me on my desired career path. I took a look at some similar threads on WSO but was curious to learn more, any guidance would be much appreciated!
Conversely, I’d be curious about going the other way, from MBB to IB, and if such a move is advisable
I wouldn't leave MBB for anything but a top group at an EB/BB. Going to get MS for this, but MBB is far harder to break into than most banks (outside of top groups).
Why are you monkey shitting me? I'm right. Statistics don't lie.
