MBB in Los Angeles

Anyone have any insight on the LA offices of the MBB? Looking for Mckinsey and Bain specifically. Anything on size, types of deals, industries, exit opps at the junior level, etc. would be helpful.

Management Consulting Mock Interview

“Andre was very helpful during the session. I was asking about my final round assessment centre @HSBC and he provided me with clear understanding of the role and division and how to demonstrate my interest during the interview. He also provided me with an understanding of how to structure my answers, the format expected during the interview itself (including how much technical preparation to do), and what other steps I can take before attending that. While explaining, he also provided examples of different kinds of questions to give me a better picture, and provided practical takeaways.”

Management Consulting LinkedIn Review

“Jaden has been incredibly helpful with reviewing my LinkedIn profile and supporting me through the application process. I really appreciate the time he takes to catch up with me, understand my current pace, and offer guidance that feels relevant to where I am right now. His feedback has helped me feel more confident about how I present myself and approach applications. It has been reassuring to have someone so approachable, supportive, and willing to help me keep moving forward at a pace that suits me.”

Hey there,

I have a couple friends working for MBB in LA offices and that's what they came up with (N = 6). Hope this helps!

McKinsey

Size: ~80 consultants (significantly smaller than SF)
Strong in HC/ Pharma, CGR, Energy & Natural Resources
Other industries: TMT, Private Equity, Industrial Goods/ Manufacturing
Exit ops (order of prevalence): Industry, Start-ups, VC, PE, Non-profit

Bain

Size: ~125 consultants (more than McK LA due to fewer West Coast offices)
Strong in Private Equity, HC/ Pharma, TMT, CGR
Other industries: Energy & Natural Resources, Industrial Goods/ Manufacturing

Edit: if anyone has better information (e.g. working there), please correct me.
