MBB Job Offer (U.S. consultant level lateral) - expiration date / how much time do they give you to sign?

For U.S. consultant lateral (i.e. not MBA campus hire) job offers, how long does MBB give you to decide and sign the offer letter? My guess is 2 weeks but I am looking for real data or confident hearsay answers.

Thanks CK

Management Consulting 7 Stories Review

“Daniel was incredibly kind, patient, and helpful in preparing my “Tell Me About Yourself” answer and seven interview stories. He went through my answers in great detail, providing constructive feedback and explaining everything very clearly. He always made sure I understood his suggestions before moving on. What I appreciated most was how he offered fresh perspectives and helped me better understand what interviewers are actually looking for. I gained so much from the session and really appreciated his guidance!”

Management Consulting Mock Interview

“Ashley’s industry expertise and depth of knowledge in product strategy are immediately clear. In every session, she breaks down complex management frameworks into easily digestible insights. Her communication style is direct, clear, and empathetic. Rather than giving vague or generic career advice, she provides highly actionable takeaways—including specific templates for stakeholder communications, prioritization frameworks, and real-world examples from her own leadership background that I was able to implement directly into my team's workflow the very next day. Furthermore, her kind, patient, and approachable demeanor made it extremely comfortable to discuss tough workplace scenarios and honest skill gaps without fear of judgment.”
