MBA Consulting Recruiting Coivd-19 impacts

As interview invites roll out and interviews occur, I'm wondering what impact Covid-19 and just 2020 in general has had on Consulting recruiting for MBA summer associates across the board. MBB and everything else. 

Also interested in how internationals fared this cycle (i.e. candidates that want to stay and work in the US post graduation).
