Restructuring Consulting - Undergrad

Alvarez & Marsal RX recruits for their Dallas office on UT's campus for interns and FT. FTI also recruits for RX consulting. Other players like Alix and whatnot are not big, but I would assume its possible if you tried hard enough to connect.

Any reason why UT and Texas are broken out as separate, when they refer to the same school? Lol

I am pretty sure UT is a target for restructuring consulting (have seen a decent number of alum at those firms on LinkedIn), so you should be able to resume drop if you are a business student. There won’t be OCR for non-business students (which is different from strategy / traditional consulting firms, which do have OCR for non-business students). Not as many people talked about restructuring consulting when I was there-there aren’t really clubs for it, and the general consulting clubs at UT don’t really focus on restructuring consulting. That isn’t necessarily a bad thing though, because it means you are competing against a pool of applicants that are generally less informed and less focused on recruiting for the industry, making it easier for you to stand out.

Can’t speak to Rice, but a quick LinkedIn search suggests that they are a target and that the restructuring consulting firms take a variety of majors from there

Hope that helps

I'm not involved in the UG recruiting but these are all target schools on MBA level. Feel free to DM if you have more questions.

Reach out to analysts/associates at the firms you are interested in. Would recommend starting with A&M/Alix/FTI. The groups tend to be relatively small so I would target people based on your preference of office location rather than if they are alumni of your school. Will likely get directed to on campus recruiting in the fall, but at least you’ve had one touch point then you can follow up right before they are on campus and that will likely bring you to the top of the pile and at least get you a first look for an interview.
