PwC Seasonal Tax to get into Strategy Consulting?
Hi everyone,
This is my first post so hopefully I don't get roasted too bad. I'm a current senior at a non-target university looking to enter the management or strategy consulting fields post-graduation. I'm looking for either an internship for the summer (and try to then get the full-time offer at the end of the summer), or something full-time/entry-level right out of the gate.
My question has to do with choices and strategy of breaking into the field. I'm at a non-target, I have a 3.2 GPA in Economics, and my summers have been spent being a summer camp counselor. So I'm pretty fucked. However I just accepted an internship for the spring semester at BAML in wealth management, and I am TA-ing a course in economics/finance in the spring as well. I'm also the president of my fraternity, so I've got solid leadership experience. Finally, I had an internship while abroad last fall, though it was in marketing, and I excelled in the position, posting some solid digital growth numbers that look decent on a resume.
I have a connection at PwC to do something this summer with them, but it's for the seasonal position in tax. However, PwC is somewhere I'd love to work in terms of their strategy consulting department. Do you think I should pursue this seasonal tax position, and if I get it, try to network my way into the strategy consulting group throughout the summer? Is that feasible? If I am offered and accept this seasonal tax position, am I doing nothing but pigeon-holing myself in tax? If nothing else, would the PwC name at least look good enough on my resume to get me far into the full-time consulting interview rounds in the fall?
Any advice, questions, comments, etc., would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
