Based on previous WSO threads, there isn't specific information about L.E.K. hosting networking or coffee chat events for their FT 2025 U.S. Associate positions. However, networking is a crucial part of the recruitment process in consulting and finance. Here are some general tips:

  1. Reach Out Directly: Consider reaching out to current L.E.K. employees or alumni from your school who work at L.E.K. to set up informational interviews or coffee chats.
  2. Career Services: Utilize your university's career services to find any upcoming events or connections with L.E.K.
  3. Professional Networks: Leverage professional networks like LinkedIn to connect with L.E.K. consultants and express your interest in learning more about the firm.

If you need more specific details, you might want to check L.E.K.'s official website or contact their HR department directly.
