Based on the WSO Dataset, the specific start dates for MBB (McKinsey, Bain, and BCG) in the U.S. for new hires aren't directly listed. However, it's common for these firms to offer multiple start dates throughout the year to accommodate various schedules, especially for those coming from MBA programs or needing time off before starting. For instance, start dates can range from summer to fall, and sometimes even winter, as in your case with a January 2025 start at McKinsey.
Regarding BB (Bulge Bracket banks) for roles in S&T (Sales and Trading) and IB (Investment Banking), the dataset mentions specific start dates for various banks but does not detail the flexibility in start dates. Typically, BB banks have structured start dates that align with their training programs, often in the summer. However, there can be exceptions based on department needs, visa issues, or other factors.
If you're looking for more detailed information on start dates for either MBB consulting firms or BB banks, I recommend checking with your recruiter or HR contact at the firm. They can provide the most accurate and up-to-date information regarding start dates and any flexibility they might offer.
