Recruiting Cycle for Consulting Firms
Dear WSO Community,
I've recently completed my Teach for America commitment in Memphis, TN. I taught High School mathematics for 2 years and I have a background in Economics and Biochemistry. From the information I've gathered from Teach for America, large consulting firms have an interest in hiring TFA corps members.
That being said, from consultants I've spoken with over the phone, there is a recruiting cycle (conveniently they forgot to mention when the cycle is). If I understand correctly, if I apply during a recruiting cycle, I'm more likely to see/get consulting opportunities. I have two questions:
1.) When is the recruiting cycle for large consulting firms (what months)?
2.) Are recruiting cycles for undergrads only?
Sincerely,
A guy really interested in getting interviewed for a management consulting position.
At my firm, recruiting cycles were for undergrads and graduate student internship and full-time hiring. The cycle starts around the start of the school year. You are in between cycles now, the interns hired during the last cycle are in the middle of their summer internships. You may have to go through an experienced hire process, for which there is no cycle at all, since you are 2 years removed from school.

Hi Millser19, no, I never sleep and so I can respond to any lonely threads (like this one) at all hours of the night. Impressive, I know ;-)

If those topics were completely useless, don't blame me, blame my programmers...
Where is your banking internship at? If it's a BB, EB, or anything close to that, just stick with it. Those will all be more impressive to consulting firms when you recruit full-time. To be frank, all the top consulting firms are done recruiting interns (unless you're at a target with some delayed recruiting schedule mandated by your school).

When does the recruitment window for Consulting usually opens? Is it good like in IB to apply in the early season? I'm a second-year student in Portugal looking to apply for his summer internship after his 3rd BSc year.
