Here’s the breakdown, I had a low GPA in college (2017 undergrad from non target) and I’m currently in a Vendor Risk Analyst role at a top AM firm. I’ve always wanted to be in consulting and have an offer for an internal strategy/corp strategy role at a Fortune 1000 company. (One of the brokerage firms)
I believe it’s a good role however salary @ 70k which is on the low end. I’m willing to look past this if this role can help me break into management consulting in the future. I’m willing to risk it all if this will help me or will be a boost to my resume. Plan to go to grad school as well. Reading this forum I’ve read the opposite (MC then internal consulting)
What’s your take on this?
Early career laterals into strategy consulting from industry are pretty rare.
If you're planning on an MBA though, this would be a perfectly good position to go --> MBA --> Consulting.
Would it be looked down upon since it’s very focused on one lateral? Or since I am young, I can leverage it as I progress with my career?
I feel like internal consulting is the exit opp. It's like people asking what are the exit opps from Corp Dev - that's where people go from IB, not the other way around.
Agree it's a good look for MBA apps.
