Landed a M/B/B FT, should I keep recruiting for BB?
I just received an offer for BA/A/AC at one of the M/B/B consulting firms.
Consulting isn't my favorite thing - I was afraid that I won't land ibanking and practiced some cases to broaden my horizon, meanwhile consulting has quite a few perks - shorter hours (compared to IB at least), travel opportunities, opportunities to work multiple kinds of projects, etc.
I have no banking FT offers yet, but I can get a few interviews if I pick up my network and reach out to a few people I know on the street. I am unsure if doing so is worth the efforts, since my end goal is PE and I have seen consultants placing into some PEs.
Wondering what are your thoughts in this IB-centric forum?
Thanks!

What kind of question is this? How do u expect anyone on this forum to be able to answer this for you?
I'm sorry I should clarify - my end goal is PE and is unsure if I should recruit for IB despite my consulting offer.
You can recruit from MBB to PE, but it will be a bit more difficult from what I’ve heard. If I were you I would stick with consulting for a couple years and try to recruit for PE. Who knows maybe you like consulting better than PE and decide to stay haha
If you want to be an investment banker, obviously go do that. Consulting hours are better than banking but they will suck more if you do not want to be there or aren’t interested in the work.
IMO I would just take it. BB FT is like 99% done, unless your dad is a group head your network isn't going to be able to get you into processes that are on final superdays.
MBB to PE is very doable. Just need to know which funds take consultants but there are plenty. Check the PE forum, there was a recent thread on consulting oncycle / consultant friend PE funds.
