Help Me Determine Jobs to Target
I'm a senior this year looking for a full-time analyst or consulting position. What "tier" of consulting is a fit for me, and which jobs would be a "reach"?
My stats:
Academic:
-GPA between 3.3 and 3.4 from target school
-Major: Engineering
Experience:
-Business analyst internship this summer for a F200 company. Have an offer to return for full-time position.
-Internship last summer in construction.
Extracurriculars:
-Varsity athletes
-member of two committees, nothing special there
My weak point is definitely my GPA. Strong points would be school prestige, internship this summer, and being a varsity athlete. Will my GPA keep me from getting an interview at a lot of places? I'm assuming MBB is out of the question.
You are talking about two things here: which are the companies you should target and what jobs would be in your reach.
What companies should you target? I would say start with MBB and then work your way down. No hurt in trying.
What jobs could you do? That depends on what you are interested in and where you want to end up in. Do you want to focus on a specific sector? Do you want to do FO/MO/BO?
In short, figure out what you want, nobody can help you with that.
Why are you not taking the business analyst position?
