So I've heard from people that MBB/top consulting shops hiring is UP at top 15 MBA programs but then I've heard the opposite that consulting is being squeezed a bit due to MBB sending over their European consultants to the US instead of firing them so they end up requiring less MBA hires this year -- anyone either involved in the recruiting at their firm or recruiting from MBA programs (first and second years) care to chime in what theyve seen? Is there maybe a split between M7 and Top 15's recruiting diveregence this year?

I haven't seen too many inflows from Europe (except the usual exchange programs). Seemed like a decent year regionally at some of the top 15 schools.
